Because I am convinced Quran is a guidance, and the Prophet and his successors are Guides. And I believe most Muslims should recognize the Quran as a source of guidance.

But even if I didn't believe in that, I would suggest this path, a path where Muslims seek to follow what is good sincerely, and not simply blindly follow their religious leaders and institutions.

I would also not hope that they would disbelieve in their religion, as that is not going to happen, and is unrealistic expectation.
