Ever wonder why Muslims are so easily controlled by their religious leaders?
Quran 4:59 "O ye who believe! Obey Allah, and obey the Messenger, and those charged with authority among you." http://www.usc.edu/dept/msa/quran/004.qm...
The Quran tells Muslims to obey Allah, Muhammad and religious leaders. Well, Allah and Muhammad arent around, so that leaves Imams. Remember, the word is "obey", and since the Quran is beyond question in the Islamic community, this word has more power than any word in any western legal code. Muslims believe these words with every cell in their body.
Remember some of the early post-911 footage from Afgansitan on CNN. Who can ever foget the reporter who asked a Muslim:
"wait, so if your religious leader asked you to murder babies, you would do it?",
"Of course!" the Muslim indignately and condescendinly replied via translation "they impart the will of God to us".
This obedience has no corrolary outside Islam. Its absolute.
