Devlet, bundan sonra, istediği kadar laik eğitim vermeye çalışsın!.. Nasıl olsa bu çevrelere Suudi sermayeli ve dinsel amaçlı birader vakıfları siyasal ve mali destek sağlıyor...

Laik devlet, önce 12 Eylül yönetimince konulan zorunlu din dersleri ile çiğnendi; tarikat şeyhlerinin cenaze törenleri için bakanlar kurulu kararnameleri çıkartılarak iyice yok edildi. Anayasal kurumlardan zorla çekilip alınan "özerklik" neredeyse siyasal partiler ile iç içe yaşayan "tarikatlar" için geçer akçe oldu... (Cumhuriyet, 8 Ocak 1987, Türban ve Fes) Uğur MUMCU
