Depends on the views, I suppose. For example, preaching that gays should be stoned to death, or 9 year old girls are old enough to shag, or religious law supersedes civil law then yes, he should be refused citizenship. Screw that, he shouldn't be allowed to enter the country. The problem is determining which views are sufficiently odious to bar entry.

@ Shrunk, it was not apparent to me. Thanks for clarification.

edit: Makes me wonder if there was an alternative. Keep the principle of showing respect to teachers yet allowing to show it with regards for different traditions.

If such alternative was offered and the boys would refuse to show respect for female teacher by any means, then there would be strong case for intent to disrespect and subsequent action.

Let them all in and I want to see how they will try to take away a vodka bottle from my fellow Russians. A sight I would pay to see.

A reference to this - http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/copenhagen-bar-owners-call-government-tackle-muslim-sharia-patrols-1559664

There's no way I can imagine it would happen here.

Indeed, let them all in and move where they came from as it would be empty. I prefer sunny anyway.
