I think the religious leaders should not fight against red roses and birthday parties but they should speak very loudly against ignorance .
I do not hear that .
Iran's leaders were preaching very loudly about the importance of education .As a result the number of their female university graduates is as high as in Scandinavia .
Education was booming under Arab regimes where religion was not very important .Just look - who the most educated are among the Arabs !
if these leaders wish to promote progress and not backwardness then they should care more about promoting education !
