I will just rephrase admirers/followers in the above post.
I just put a simple question to my friends here.
The followers of a person named A; if they the followers of A with omission or commission, being sinful human beings as they are, make mistakes without any express authority from A; to how much extent A would be responsible for the wrongs of his followers? A had died/passed away centuries ago.
If A is a Catholic
If A is a non-Catholic
This is just a simple question to frame a principle.
My answer is: A is absolutely not responsible for the sins of the followers. A could be a Catholic, a Protestant, a JW, a Hindu, a Wicca, a Buddhist or a Muslim and followers could be of any faith.
One may insert instead of the Catholic in the suppositions the world Muslim, yet the answer won’t change.
What is your reply?
Thanks

If admirers of Mohammed are content to regard him historically as a great Arabian, who had a real and strange sense of prophetical call, and through this and his immense natural genius, singular gifts, and many virtues, accomplished a stupendous life-work, then we join with the admirers. Who with a grain of historic sense and appreciation would not?
