I neither approve nor condone pedophiliac, bestial or homosexual activity wherever such sins be carried out, be they here or in the Moslem world. And I do believe in modesty of dress for women and men anywhere. And as a prudential matter, I don't see this as progress for Afghanistan, but rather a propaganda coup for the Talibans who will blame it all on us decadent infidels.

I personally think Kahlil Gibran said it best:

"Forget not that modesty is for a shield against the eye of the unclean."

...be not unclean, mmkay?

Well, frankly, I'm all for modesty, but I'm also for people wearing whateverthehecktheywannawear. And for those that don't like it, they can lump it (whatever their religion is).

There are plenty of modest western women --- but it's not "modesty" in muslim countries, it's called fearing for their lives ---- they get shot in the head if they show their faces --- it's not a choice to be modest.

Given what I've seen of the Islamic culture, the world would be better off if it was entirely eliminated. If the best way to eliminate it is to show the young Islamic men that Islam stands in the way of their enjoying a good time with hot women, then cool
