I didn't know you worshiped a penis in the old and nilisim in the new.

I'm racist and I stole Jesus.

Catholicity can be approached in two ways.

Christianity tends to adapt into the prevailing culture, often giving old practices a Christian spin. It's the bottom up approach.
Islam tends to replace, instead it insists that everyone ought to be as Arabic as possible. Although to the extent that has happened varies. It's the top down approach.

Actually it's just some people for different reasons who try or think it's part of the religion to adapt some kind of look.
In this religious chanel we have young people with normal/modern clothes, while the older tend to wear traditional clothes.

Some non-muslim people are used to see people dressed traditionally and think muslim people only/often dress that way.
I disagree about saying "Islam" can't adapt to cultures. It's just the Medias who give you that impression.

In the arab world you find people dressing in different way.

I noticed that some convert think they should wear arab/pakistani/afghan clothes. Actually people wear that because it's traditional clothes.
People sometimes can't distinguish the clothes.

The Turkish culture seems to have it right to me, Lorgar-Aurelian. Their women don't overdo it by covering up everything, just covering up everything sexual.

They cover up genocides too
