It's simple. They'll put duct tape over the eye slits of their burqas and tell them to "read whatever they can."

Maybe this is a slight progress for them (if they finally agree with this).

But honestly I don't like what the Talibans do to Muslims.
They try to impose too much control on peoples' lives. They ban a lot of things for which there are no clear prohibitions in Islam.

Just because YOU don't think its clear does not mean they don't.

All of this shit is written so that anyone can make it say whatever they need it to say.

From their perspective, they're forming a new caliphate. That justifies everything.

It is unfortunate, huh? What's sad to me is that the Muslims have a beautiful culture and it is being degraded by radical Islamic groups. Non-Fundamental religion is what keeps the west in check. I'm telling you: the youth of the Arab world must come together and revolt before it's too late... they must modernize or else.

I don't think it's a matter of modernizing the Muslims, but rather, we should focus more on getting rid of the extremism only. Islam is a religion for all times.
