Those religious practices are engaged in by some Muslims but far from all of them. I feel that this is something you know but you chose to ignore because it interferes with your agenda. You paint Muslims with far too broad a brush.

(Interestingly, wearing a dark loosely fitting garment in extreme heat is actually pretty comfortable. Consider the Tuareg people.)



As for rules, why not condemn all Jews because the Old Testament calls for a death sentence for disobeying your father? Or eating pork or shellfish? Or wearing a cotton polyester blend? Or raping a woman (but only if she's betrothed to another man).

Here is a suggestion if you don't like my posts don't read them, it is really easy to ignore posts I do with most of yours and it is effortless.
I find your posts on the subject of Muslims objectionable so I object.
