» Pinky102 - Re: Mullahs

In response to Mullahs posted by Binte:

I concur with your summations.

That's not the problem.

The problem is that religious law imposes itself between the government and the individual or the groups to which the individual belongs. In other words, religious law over rules civil law and or imposes its rulings on both government and individual.

That's the way it is in Iran and I suppose that's the way a lot of the "Christian Mullahs" would like things to be in America. Thank God we've got our Constitution that rules religious establishments and their direct laws out of our national society. The religious establishment is a separate entity and not associated with government in any way whatsoever.
