No man can know everything or be a perfect ruler or singlehandedly teach people about morality because for everything you need groups of people, as large as you can get, to discuss it and develop it, especially since they will be affected by the decisions.That's the point of normative religion. Mythical exemplars are supposed to be the diagram we live our lives by, and doing so....it's believed by those who accept the religion, can make -us- that special man. Bundled way down in that onion, is the idea that no matter how many of those special people you gathered together they would be of one unitary mind on a given thing.
And yet, it seems that this "special man" mentality is what most of today's religions preach and have been preaching for the last millennia.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
