orthodox religion. This power struggle permeates the
training, educating and disciplining of the orthodox
community. Because of this pressure, the leaders of such a
community inevitably must face that ultimate internal
question: to succumb to complete opportunism as the price of
maintaining their rule, or risk sacrificing themselves for
the sake of the orthodox ethic.
