If you read the article and see the pictures, these are NOT unattractive women who think they can only find a husband easier if their faces are covered. Anyway, their faces aren’t covered.
No, it’s simpler and sadder: they are people who are hungry for God, but in the UK the Christian faith has retreated so far into meaningless platitudes that it provides no stabilizing effect on society, no connection with God, no help for families or connection between people. It has backpeddled, and Western society has become decadent as a result. Any faith that offered traditional values would draw converts. These are lonely, God-starved people, and Islam is giving them empty calories.
I dunno. I think these are sick self-loathing women who want to flaunt their contempt for the west and its heritage such as Christianity. What about Catholicism or the conservative reformed churches over there that still teach traditional morality? They convert to the religion of the enemyt knowing full well of what is going on in the world.
