A large majority of religious teachers are possessed by forces from the Dark Side. A
The power that the false tzadikm and false messiahs have over us is because of the the support they get from religious teachers. If we would simply learn and keep Torah simply none of these problems would be plaguing us.
It is true that a מומחה לרבים can decide a halachic issue in civil laws. But the qualifications to be a מומחה לרבים are not qualifications that any religious teachers have. They are just innocent idiots that give qualifications one to the other.
Reb Natan I assume was a gilgul of Natan from Gaza and corrected his sin of supporting a false messiah by supporting a true tzadik. But in doing so he overdid it.
[The main criteria for a מומחה לרבים is not that he has been accepted by the crowd but he has been tested by people who themselves experts in the whole Mishna and Talmud and has never been found to make a mistake or not know a halacha. So who would that be. I would have to say people who in fact were known to know the Talmud well. Not people who had their reputations built of other criteria. So if we look at the true criteria that the Chazal give us it is fairly easy to see that there were people and probably still are a few who do qualify. Rav Shach, Reb Moshe Feinstein, Shmuel Berenbaum. The trouble begins with Baali Teshuva who find some Chrismatic lunatic and decide to call him a "Baki BeShas" expert in Shas. So the idiot gets a reputation for knowing the Talmud because people want this to be so. Not because it is in fact the case.
