This chapter homes in on a subset of questions and challenges in connection with the 2018 Danish “burqa ban”. These concern the primary assumptions, as made by the Danish MPs cum legislators (Danish MPs/legislators). Apart from a general commentary (in section 2 ), one of the purposes is to connect religious and political factors with a philosophical analysis of materialism and idealism, as espoused and/or opposed by thinkers like Feuerbach, Hegel, Marx, and Engels. The comparison is developed in section 3, where the author also endeavors to show how philosophical analysis can be a pathway to progress, if perhaps only indirectly. In particular, if policy-makers consider the deeper layers of thought, at least those that are of relevance to the discussion for and against the burqa ban, some important nuances may present themselves; nuances that count as insights that should not be missed. The insights that are applicable help to clarify the various culture clashes involved in the burqa ban dispute. A parallel to Hans Christian Andersen is also made to incorporate insights from a Danish writer and thinker who, in one sense, was ahead of the debate and dispute.
