#3 "Well, let's see. When I graduate college with an advanced degree in biochemistry, if I am a fundy I can grow a real neat beard, wear a turban, and beat my head on the floor four times a day. If I become a secularist and leave the country, I can work for Monsanto, pull down $150k/yr, own a beemer and live in a nice house near a city with LOTS of entertainment. Hmmm. Choices, choices."

#4 I'd suggest they stay where they are and figure out a way to get rid of the mullahs so they can have their secular country and pursue a decent life in their own homeland.

And don't be nice about how the mullahs are pushed out.

#5 De Toqueville rules again - best formula to create secularists is to have the most obnoxious possible religious government. I think Sistani in Iraq realizes this.
