There are many proofs. But some people are too blind or too proud to see them. You can check out provingislam.com for a teaser.

That's as scientific as a Marvel Comic Con. That just tries to align with your bias, there isn't any science on it.

The slippery slope is real. And as far as we're concerned, taking the Hijab away is one very obvious step in that direction. Just look at history. I'm not defending the Iranian regime by the way. You're straw manning to assume that the Hijab's only reason is lack of self control. It's one part of many things that we have in Islam to preserve morality and purity. For example, both men and women are ordered to lower th…

My religion brought enlightenment into the world, and you benefit from it to this very day. Read up about the Islamic Golden Age for an intro.

Why are you asking me? Did I defend the corruption of such a regime anywhere in what I wrote? In fact, I stated the opposite. The incident should be investigated, and those responsible should face justice.

> It's not actually mandatory for Westerners to have unprotected sex with every woman whose hair we can see

No one said it is mandatory, but the results are clear for spreading immorality in the land.

Your last statement is pure bigotry and Islamophobic and racist. If you don't want to learn, I hope someone else who comes across this conversation has an open mind.

It is scientific, just not experimental science which is limited. Look up Islam's Isnad system to learn more. There is nothing like it in any other tradition, faith or historic or otherwise. If you only follow experimental science, then you follow the religion of scientism, which only give a partial picture, and sometimes even an incorrect picture.

Flamewar comments like you posted in this thread are completely unacceptable on HN and will get you banned here, regardless of how you feel about someone else's religion.

Religious flamewar is a hell particularly to be avoided. Please don't post anything like this to HN again.

I well understand the frustration of being in the minority among an internet community, but you can't post flamewar comments like this to HN, and you did it repeatedly and egregiously in this thread. We end up having to ban accounts that post like this because the threads it leads to are so destructive of the community.

I don't like to ban people for expressing contrarian points of view, but your conduct in this thread was way past unacceptable in its own right. Please don't do this again, and please avoid religious arguments generally—they just lead to hellish flamewars and are always off topic.

Don't know about CIA conspiracies but I'm sure Saudi Arabians will protest Hijab mandates one day. Freedom is amazing and every human craves it at some level.

Please don't take HN threads on generic flamewar tangents. This one went straight to hell, which is the opposite of what we're going for here.

Religious flamewar is particularly hellish and particularly avoidable. Let's avoid it.

Ah yes, the typical astounding secular definition of freedom, equating it with nakedness and vices. I’ll tell you something, the vast majority of the Saudis are proud of the Hijab and their Islamic faith that promotes purity and decency. We don’t want the western definition of “freedom” thank you very much, we’ve seen where it leads

You posted dozens of flamewar comments in this thread. That's extreme, and you have a history of doing it and ignoring our requests to stop. I've therefore banned this account as well as some others. Please don't create accounts to break HN's rules with. Religious flamewars are not what this site is for.

Frankly, all the other commenters who jumped straight into the pit of hell with you are more responsible than you are, but we can't have people abusing HN this egregiously.

We've had to warn you before about posting flamewar comments to HN. The kind of thing you repeatedly posted to this thread is particularly hellish and awful. We ban accounts that do this.

I don't want to ban you, so please don't post anything like this to HN again—regardless of how you feel about someone else's religion.

The possessive suggests possession - as if the men of Iran own the women of Iran, and are sovereign over them, like an autocratic government is over its subjects. You may be aware of protests currently ongoing in Iran regarding distaste for this attitude amongst “your” Iranians.
