I thought, yeah, crazy old religious nut, then I read this:

# Seismologists have warned for at least two decades that it is likely #
the sprawling capital will be struck by a catastrophic quake in the
# near future.

and it takes on an altogether more sinister tone. The authorities would
be happy to have earthquakes as an excuse to repress the people even
more. They can simply say "we told you so" after the earthquake they
predicted would be inevitable as a result of women dressing
promiscuously. Not quite so crazy after all.
