Sorry oscarstruk, don't get the joke! Maybe I don't share the humour of someone your age. I assure you no hatred has been directed at you!
 A man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?

We aren't hating. I for one, am amused.

Hello comrade, welcome to the forum.
Checking my Chambers dictionary of theocracy " God, or a god, is regarded as the sole sovereign and the laws of the realm as divine commands rather than human ordinances--- the priesthood necessarily becoming the officers of the invisible ruler ".
Shit, we ain't got that just yet have we??
Oh dear, a bit of patriotism? Yes, there is a difference between a theocracy and a monarchy held "By the Grace of God". Thankfully the UK is not a theocracy. They might as well get rid of the Monarchy too and the ridiculous subsidised Church of England. It's a relic of the past.

Why? Marx laid out how socialism could replace capitalism by means of a proletarian revolution. Unfortunately, so far the proletariat has not emancipated itself , so Marx's prediction has not yet come to pass. However, he did leave us the wonderfully inspiring communist manifesto which concludes:-
" Let the ruling classes tremble at a communistic revolution. The proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains. They have a world to win.
WORKING MEN OF ALL COUNTRIES, UNITE! "
( note, Marx was writing in advance of womens' liberation! )
