[quote]Actually, in Pakistan at least, I do not think majority of the people really care what the mullah has to say. They won the election in NWFP and that might be an exception. In general Pakistani people always opt for secular leaders, like Benazir or Nawaz Sharif, etc. I think this is so because people know mullah has brought no good to the community in general, only thing they do like you said is repressing rights of women, and imposing wrong interpretations of sex and other laws. That is because they are not with the modern times and ignorant. You cannot just be an aalim/scholar with only religious education, you need to be aware of your surroundings and modern sciences. One of the things I have noticed about the mullahs is the stubborn belief that Allah only wants us to progess in Islamic knowledge, rest of the knowledge is useless for the after life they say so there is no point in pursuing it. Some will even say why we go to western style schools and get education of non-religious things, we should be better off studying religion. I say we should do both.[/quote]
