Why do nun's wear Scarf (Hijab)?

Reader comment on item: Hijabs on Western Political Women
in response to reader comment: Why the nuns wear Hijab

Submitted by George Walter (United States), Jan 26, 2009 at 01:06

Dear asker, you have asked why nuns wear scarves. Here is an answer. Nuns constitute a very small percent of Christian women. Scarf among Christian women is not recommended for all women at all times. If a lot of christian women start wearing hijab a lot of times (e.g when the temperature is 100 degree and humidity is nearly 100%), their wisdom will be questioned as well.

Does it make sense?

George
