I do worry about that. It seems that some Muslims who come over here live in self-contained communities in European countries, where they try and impose their own rules as far as they can get away with. This makes leaving the religion so much harder. (Of course, this is one of the reasons they do it.) The women I'm sure get no say in the matter.
Although it's not nearly as insular an environment as before the Internet, it's still an unhealthy shadow of it that will keep fundamentalist religion going on longer than it otherwise would.
If my observations are off, please correct me. I get the impression that law enforcement and people in general are rather reluctant to do anything about these communities, allowing them to become mini theocracies.
I do hope I'm wrong. Seriously.
