Sounds like something from the old testament in the Bible. Of course since Mohamed freely used the Bible as a crib sheet when wrote the Quran it could also be from there.
Wherever it's from, it's another one of those senseless mickey mouse do's and dont's the old Testament is full of. What possible difference can it make if a woman covers her hair or not.
So what? Women at the time who kept their heads uncovered were considered whores. It was talking about not looking like a whore if you say you're a Christian. Think of it this way, "Don't walk around with your boobs hanging out and making porn on the internet" would be the modern version of it now.
Eh.
Agnostic preacher's kid. Go figure.
Oh. And it's 1 Corinthians 11. Check out Ezekiel 23:20. It's a winner.

Let me be PC and Islamic on this one??? Since it is written in filthy English, it is automatically NOT out of the Quran. It must therefore be an interpretation of the infidels book.
