There are people who fight over everything here, forming factions over the smallest details of a fucking comic book movie, you expect everyone or even a significant majority to agree on this leader? It's an implausible hypothetical.
It's an interesting perspective to me, because I am awaiting the Mahdi (the promised one who will bring unity and peace and justice to the world). Is it worth fighting the majority of humanity, majority of your country,etc, if this happens?
I understand intellectually disputing, but, what I'm talking about, is would you support trying to assassinate him and if that fails to fight his followers and not allow even if the majority of the world was about around 80% in following him? If suppose 75% of US all wanted to support him. What would you do?
I'd move. Just the same as you poofed this magical Islamic leader into existence that all the yokels in Mississippi drop trou and follow, I poof an undiscovered continent into existence where all the people who have the ability to think for themselves live and go there.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
