Don’t think LDS women were stoned or beheaded for not wearing a veil ...

for years, Christian woman wore veils or head coverings after marriage , out of modesty...and according to local custom.

by Canon law, Catholic women are still supposed to cover their head in church...

The Amish and Mennonite women still wear a modest bonnet.

Some Mennonite, Amish, and Hutterites wear head coverings. Traditional Catholics nuns wear veils, Catholic women had to wear a head covering in church services until 1964.

Women were expectd to wear hats in public until after WWII.

It is not the covering that is the issue, it is the political social intolerance of islam
