People are of course free to ignore rules of their religion, be it ignoring the reason for wearing a headscarf or by drinking alcohol and that is fine.  We see it here all the time... very few manage to fast through ramadan, remain a virgin until marriage or avoid alcohol but mention eating pork and they look aghast!!! 

how about christians` having sex before marriage? isn`t it it the same thing? christianity clearly forbids it.

 Yes of course - that is why I said "religion" and not "islam".  However, I must admit Christians don´t preach to me as often as muslims, because I know very very few practising Christians   Being "Christian" is almost like a dirty word here... I know few people who would admit they are religious.  Our churches are empty

The point is, that you are FREE of course to ignore your religious rules, but dont use your religion when it suits you  

the rate of church attencance is extremely in America especially in the south. surprisingly, the highest rate of teenage pregnancy can also be found in the southern states.

 Well I don´t speak for the US Tam, I was talking about the UK

Yes, I have heard and seen about those lovely church going bed Amerikans and I agree they are hypocrites too.... that is why I used the word "religion" and not "Islam"... but you keep ignoring that fact

it was just an ancdote. why are you getting angry?

Why are you trying to start an argument with me?  Does it turn you on?

are you still under the influence of flu?

 Nope!  Back at work and fighting fit and ready to take all that you sling at me

it`s so cool that some employers pay their workers for doing nothing

 I am paid for the quality of my work, not the quantity.  If I had a brain like yours of course, I would have to work in a factory and only take small breaks.  However, I am able to sit in this nice warm office and drink coffee and talk to wonderful people like you instead
