Theocracy on the way
January 14, 2022 at 5:04 pm
With a movement toward theocracy now openly visible, will the non-religious and any religious who see the danger in this come together to oppose such a change? Or will it overwhelm an apathetic population?
Why is it so?

What makes you think a theocracy is soon to be? I mean that would be wonderful, but what makes you think that?

While I am quite positive Ahriman will fully embrace their Muslim overlords I, for one, will find it interesting as to how exactly people will take to regressing back to bronze age practices.....

So, are you trolling us or what? I don't see why anybody would think a theocracy is anywhere near on the horizon. It won't happen within my lifetime.

No, despite the desperate attempts by evangelicals and the Republican party, I don't see it gappenibg soon, either.
However, my question applied to you saying such a thing would be "wonderful".
A question you haven't answered

A question you haven't answered Well I think it would be wonderful. I know not everyone would think that.

What would be wonderful about having a bunch of god botherers in charge, and how would they treat atheists and other rational thinkers?

Theocracy where a Huckabee is president? Falwellian theocracy? Or just a bible-holder-upper type guy?
