I don't see a person becoming psychotic enough to kill somebody by reading a book. you sound pretty picky in how you define the lifestyle of the average muslim. many may consider themselves very religious and have totally different levels of practice. and yes, those women who came here that don't wear hijab are religious. pray 5 times a day, go to mosque 1-2 times a week, etc.
You can't reduce religion to books. There is tradition, practice, diet, interpretation, and cultural influences. And anyway, books have influenced man since they were invented. Often in ways the authors never intended.
I never used the term 'average Muslim'.
I'm sure there are many religious Muslim women who don't wear hijabs. Have I claimed otherwise? Muslim women who wear head-covering just happen to be pretty common in Mississauga.
My point is that people who are atheists still find ways to get mad and angry.
And... thus gold standard.
Yes Atheists get mad. But not because their daughters are not wearing what they interpret to be mandatory dress according to a holy book.
me and my wife are agnostics, and we have a kid!

Just one. If you were full blown atheists you would have gotten a cat name Bertrand.
