The beginning of Islam started around 610 CE. However, America has been around since 1776, so it’s obvious we Americans know more than other people in the world since we have been about 240 Years?
Critics of the Muslim veiling tradition argue that women do not wear the veil by choice, and they are often forced to cover their heads and bodies. In contrast, many daughters of Muslim immigrants in the West argue that the veil symbolises devotion and piety and that ceiling is their own choice. To them, it is a question of religious identity and self-expression.
Muslims are not a race. The word “Muslim” itself connects to followers of Islam, a world religion — not a “race.
The whole stereotype that all Muslims are forced to dress like this is entirely false. Some Muslim women do not choose to cover up, and this is their decision. There are, however, many successful Muslim women who do cover up and have managed to become absolutely fantastic in their fields and still maintain the modesty that they chose to uphold.
Q: Why do you dress the way you do?
A: First and foremost, because Allah commands us to do so. In the Qur’an, Allah tells the believers to “lower their gaze and be modest.” Specifically, it says: “Say to the believing men that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty; that will make for greater purity for them, and Allah is well acquainted with all that they do. And say to the believing women that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty; and that they should not display their beauty and ornaments except what must ordinarily appear thereof; that they should draw their veils over their chests and not display their beauty except to their husbands, their fathers…” [continuing list of family members and others in front of whom women are exempt from covering] (Qur’an 24:30-31)
And I know that Americans have the knowledge of a “Pet Rock”, and just as hard will still wave the American Flag and say “We are the greatest country on earth?”
However, Understand they have a serious mental condition and want to continue to live in a constant state of denial?
So, let’s take time to do our own inventory rather than other Countries

So are you convinced that we are in trouble yet?
The truth is that America has changed. Most of us don’t even say hello to our neighbours anymore.
In fact, we have become so self-involved that many of us don’t even notice when someone around us dies.
Just consider the following two examples.
*USA Today recently reported on the body of a dead woman that was not found for approximately a year even though a whole bunch of people walked right past the car where she died….
If we ever want to turn this country around, we need to be very honest with ourselves. We need to take a long, hard look in the mirror and realise that it is not a good thing that we are number one in divorce, drug addiction, debt, obesity, car thefts, murders and total crimes. We have become a slothful, greedy, decadent nation that is exhibiting signs of advanced decay. Until we understand just how severe our problems really are, we won’t be able to come up with the solutions that we need.
