I Corinthians 11:5but any woman who prays or prophesies with her head unveiled disgraces her head-- it is one and the same thing as having her head shaved.

My wife wears a head-scarf every Sunday (guess why). After mass, we often go out shopping or to eat. Frequently, moron liberals come up to us, shoot me a nasty look, and then tell her, "You're free! You don't have to wear that scarf anymore!" Free? Oh, just not free to decide what to wear on her head.

The real prize goes to the red-blooded Patriots who come up to us and say things like:

Yeah. Land of origin? U.S of A. We're already "back" there.

Finally, after years of this getting worse post-9/11, she bought a bright blue scarf that says "I love Jesus" in big, gold letters. Did it help?

No.

Actually most Catholics wear their scarves only in church, so you are speaking of an unusual case. I think you are being silly trying to compare the Moslem isolation tent to a simple head covering some wear in church. Get real. I frankly doubt if anyone spoke to your wife that way. I think this story was made up. We have many ladies who wear scarves to cover their heads while receiving chemotherapy. Folks accept that and wish them well. Some women wear fancy hats to church, to weddings, military events, or horse races. This is for fun or style - not to regress back to the middle ages.

I, sir, am talking about the full body armor worn by Muslims. Not a headscarf, yarmulke or other proclamations of ones religious beliefs. I wear a cross, not the garb that Jesus wore, not something that would make me necessarily stand out in a crowd.

I believe that most of these people wear these tents to make a statement, nothing religious, just a statement.

And, as I believe, they are doing nothing but making a political statement, go back to the land of sand and make that statement.

Over the years, this country (US) has accepted many of various religious beliefs and they have assimilated, still holding to their basic beliefs without the need to make it a billboard issue.

When this land is overrun by Shaia law, we will all wonder what happened to our “scarves”, “yarmulkes” and “crosses” and our heads.

If she doesn’t want to get rude comments, why doesn’t she simply take off her head scarf when she’s not in church? Problem solved. It seems so basic.

How does she do on the tile grout lines, especially the corners?
