I'm not sure what you mean by "uniformity of ideology", but Islam has all sorts of conflicting views about everyday life, some of which (for example: how a woman should dress in public) get a great deal of Western attention these days. So any blanket statement about what Islam does or does no allow should be received skeptically. -- To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
