Like, an eye is too tempting because she is nothing but a sex object and men are nothing but pigs who are going to act on instinct. It's just awful.
It's especially strange when some of the criticisms that some muslim countries have of the west have to do with us being sex-crazed or our women being promiscuous... when they apparently can't handle seeing a shred of flesh on their own women without going nuts.
Yep. Like i said, it's sex obsession, objectification of women, and impurity of heart. Opposite sides of the same coin as what goes on in the West, except I would argue to a much greater degree even.

I mean... I don't recall any catholic nuns advocating for a policy requiring all women in their country to wear a habit, punishable by imprisonment or worse..
Don't bother. Some people are always going to try to equate Christianity with radical Islamism every chance they get.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
