Your logic is slightly flawed if I understand your meaning. The burka is of religious importance to the Muslim woman who wears it, but the kippah is not of religious importance to the Christian, he wears it out of respect to others.

Is it not common Christian belief to respect other people and customs?
On the same line, it should be noted that "the burka" is of no religious importance to the muslim women who don't wear it. Furthermore, muslim women attend Catholic services on numerous occassions and often do so without wearing "a burka".
