The Ayatollah would say the same about you, somoo. Passing judgment on other people's spiritual beliefs is not a western value. Religious tolerance is necessary for the freedom of worship in an ever connected modern world where internecine strife is passe.

People of all faiths - not just Muslims - resort to the teachings of God. The organization of society in an ideal way in the western world is democracy (rule of the people), and not theocracy (rule of priests and imams in the name of God).
