Because the bible says women should wear head scarfs then it will be law as well. Bet some of you didn't even realize the Bible says that, did you?

Paul (edit: not Ron Paul but the apostle) said this when referring to women in church back in his day, not Jesus. Jesus had the most respect for women of his time, some even consider him an early feminist. Either way this will never be a law in the U.S. you should know America better than that.

Meanwhile the leader of CAIR (counsil on american-islamic relations) has been accused of saying he'd like the Koran to replace our Constitution!!! Apparently they aren't compatible. Muhammad had little to no respect for women other than adding more of them for his wives. Even stealing one of his sons' wives by telling him Allah told him to give her up to him - how convenient. Women wearing headscarves will be the least of our worries once our Consititution is replaced by the Koran.

BTW no Evangelical has said the Constitution must or should be replaced by the Bible- they are already compatible with each other, so there's no problem.


1. I never said women should dress in any particular way, I was just saying that religious views should not be forced upon the general public. This should always be a personal opinion and decision.

2.  Paul (apostle) said he spoke with the Jesus and that is how he preached. That his ideas were one in the same with Jesus', so him saying women should wear scarfs is the same as if Jesus said so. Point was that this could easily be taken as an extreame point of view by some Christians. In fact it is in some circles.

3. What does CAIR or anything any other Islamic organizations point on this have to do with what I said. I am for a strict interpretation of separation of church and state.

4. You obviously havn't learned Islamic history from a University level class. Stop watching Fox News for your Islamic history. I am not going to waste my time going into a history class on Muhammad as you are obviously narrow minded and it won't be worth my time.

5. I have no idea if a Christian has stated that the constitution should be replaced by the Bible, but I know I have heard many make the erronous claim that the founding fathers founded this country on Christian ideals and beliefs. Especially in regards to Gay rights and abortion.
