As far as I can see, this girls choices on the matter - and her motivation towards making them - are up to her. The degree of hostility and criticism from some quarters seems to me to be totally unjustified. Who else has the right to interpret what her religion demands of her? Her relationship with her God is her own personal business, and no one elses.
