How can religions helps in the marketing of a democratic government?
Most practitioners of major religions would actually contradict their beliefs if they involved themselves in marketing a democratic government. Most monotheistic religions teach that a theocratic government is the only form a government they should market. They would have to be convinced that the particular democratic government was indeed God's chosen government and therefore be theocratic. In most eastern religions there is a heavy emphasis on being content with your role in life and obeying those in charge or higher than you. It would take considerate religious reform for the ruling classes of these countries to give power to those below them, or the ones below them to think they have the right to have a form of power in ruling. Power to the people is not really seen in most eastern religions, but instead, following your path in life to the best of your ability. They would also have to be convinced that their path includes having this power. We have seen both of these scenarios take place in the world.
