text: Did your God also choose the leaders of the churches and countries implicit in the previous century of various abuses such as ethnic "cleansing" and child molestation, and if so, should the people nevertheless  honor and submit to them while politely insisting on a change? By your argument, if a country's leader "wins" the election, are the people thence forth obligated to be eternally subservient regardless of his actions? How do you decide? 
  Even a cursory search of your clearly educated memory should serve to provide examples of leaders of various countries (and religions) for each and every decade of the last 100 years whose authority should have been RIGHTEOUSLY challenged but wasn't sufficiently. 
  Please. No really - please. Access your conviction about the goodness and courage shown by whomever you've identified as your personal savior and ACT on it. Otherwise, you just might be shown by your words to be yet another monster's apologist, and thereby complicit in its pillaging.
