> Thinking "sure, they apply shariah, and believe islam is the only true religion, and that god leads them, but deep inside they know things aren't that simple" is applying your own logic to them
So we should just apply your logic to them, then?
- bsaul 11y agoWe should apply our logic to ourselves, and theirs to themselves. That means, be rational, and not expect them to be.

But in reality, the theocracy in Iran doesn't hold absolute power.. there is some semblance of a democracy and at the end of the day the government does face the scrutiny of its people and the international community, just like every other nation.. saying they are completely devoid of logic is just foolish.
