I have to wonder, why the fear of anything being “provocative”? Are the men of that religion so unable to control themselves that even the sight of a wrist gets them worked up for a woman? Geez.

That is it. Islam controls people by trying to cover up and remove all sources of temptation - externally. No real change in their heart is necessary. Christianity controls people by changing their hearts so they resist temptation - internal self control.

Well, since Islam is a Satanic cult, you can be assured that it will NOT be focused on self control, but on control of others. Just like its parallel religion - “liberalism”.

The operating system of Islam, or at least many cultures that embrace it, is for men to control others and remove all temptation, precisely because they have no self-control. This is why they are fixated on conquest (though I suspect that fixation came first).

The Christian message seems to be the opposite: the world is full of sin, and it is each person’s job to resist it through faith and inner strength. The religious meaning of “jihad” is an echo of this concept. The “militant” meaning is a reversion to controlling others.
