Actually, the french secularist law were written more than 100 years ago to kick out nun and priest from public school.

The law banning the scarf in school is from 2004.

The 1901 secularist law is about separating Church and State. It's about freedom of religion and not having any official religion, it wasn't supposed to be about forcing people to hide their religion.
