The Muslim world is so disgusted with the evil of the West together with the Western women-gone-wild that they are determined to wipe this wickedness off the face of the earth.

Who know but what God may have a hand in it too?

One cannot argue with their point.

When you see this western society and the way clothing is viewed they do indeed have an excellent point.

Shoes
Purses
Hair ornaments
Make Up
The hottest, tightest, lowest cut jeans

Then we look at scripture and see terms such as....

Modest
Shamefacedness
Sobriety

Where have these terms gone?

Even in the church... have we redefined them to fit our desire to have what we have and wear what we like?

Yep... they definitely have a good point.

I am sure that for many (maybe most) that it is their choice. It is their choice to live their religion.

There are surely some in pentecost who dress our definition of modesty and it is not their choice. If they had the opportunity then they would leave the modesty in a moments notice.

I have to believe that most do it by choice though.

It could (or could not) be the same way with them.

Every attitude laid out in the video... such as... modesty, choice, viewing others "freedom" as fulfulling the desires of their own flesh are all opinions and beliefs that we all hold in our own ranks as well.

Why are they less likely to do this by choice than we?

The world looks at a modestly dressed pentecostal woman and says the same thing.

I enjoyed the video ... it's well done ... yet I wonder ... is this not the same religion that allows their men to beat their wives?

From the Koran:

[4:34] The men are made responsible for the women, and GOD has endowed them with certain qualities, and made them the bread earners. The righteous women will cheerfully accept this arrangement, since it is GOD's commandment, and honor their husbands during their absence. If you experience rebellion from the women, you shall first talk to them, then deserting them in bed, then you may beat them. If they obey you, you are not permitted to transgress against them. GOD is Most High, Supreme.

I'm all for modesty ... BUT somehow using Islam to somehow make a case for it ... seems faulty to me.
