Re: Why you should never go to a mosque...
 

I wouldn't be impressed either flashy .. any headwear to me is a no, no. Flattens me hair you understand and makes it curl .. no way, so no mosque visits for me I'm afraid. Anyway, why do women have to cover their heads in the first place .. what's so horrible about it ?

As for turning men away in shorts .. to me men in shorts should be shot a dawn anyway, so can see the reasoning behind this ... :D

Think that guy is pretty disgusting too .. ! Sloppy sod. Must have known there were holes in 'em when he dressed that day, couldn't possibly have happened during the course of the day, like us women sometimes with our tights. Wonder what his underpants are like \______/

In a Jewish temple, the men should all wear a head covering.

Be it a church, mosque, or temple, it is a place of worship first and foremost. As such, it is their right to set the dress code for folks wishing to worship or just to have a look around. It is also their right to prohibit the use of mobile phones, MP3 players, flash photography - or any photography. Folks who don't wish to conform should sightsee somewhere else.

Of course Billcat, no argument there, just wondering why women should have to cover their heads and what is the reasoning behind that ?

Why do they have to take off shoes too ?

Re: Why you should never go to a mosque...
 

Have to check up why on the head coverings.

The rule on shoes I know. The Islamic faith sets great store in cleanliness, especially in the Mosque. Pork is, therefore prohibited. Modesty in clothing is advocated. When dining, the washing of hands is an important ritual. Also, communal dishes are often served. Use of the left, unclean hand is a big social gaffe.

Shoes are considered necessary, but unclean - especially the soles (if you've ever gone walking where people have taking their dogs, this is easy to understand). Therefore, they are not worn into the mosque. Just as a trivial aside, it is considered very bad manners to cross your knees when sitting in conversation with a Moslem, as you end up prominently showing them the sole of your shoe.

Re: Why you should never go to a mosque...
 

Katex, talk about a complex subject! Some put it down to scripture, some to the desire of some men to subjugate women.

Most mosques require headcoverings. Many islamic countries require that women (and, often, men as well) to wear their regional Islamic garb whenever in public.

Similarly, many Christian Churches require women to wear headcoverings in church. Some require it of women at all times when out in public.

In the Jewish faith, the Hasidic sects generally require married women to wear a wigs, or snoods, or tichels and to reveal their hair only to their husband.

Very complex, a lot of controversy, and many conflicting opinions. Probably enough information for several doctoral dissertations! Just glad that I am not the one who will be writing it!:cool:

Oh well, one simple rule...when in Rome, do as the Romans.

Re: Why you should never go to a mosque...
 

Perhaps the pair he wore to the mosque were the "Holey of Holies?"

He certainly was not praticing "Safe Sox!"

....ducking weaving to avoid the tomatoes and brickbats......
