Theocracy is the best governance form

Alfons · Dec 31, 2019

Unimportant whom you voting for, finally you will be cheated.
You give your vote to professional corrupted liars, mostly good-for-nothing, deviant, poor educated.
Do you see any improvement after election day?
Mostly anything stays the same, except small amount of people getting richer ( of course politicians )
Except less child births, more poverty, more drug addicts, more divorces, more insanity happens not much.
The system is wrong and does not work.
In USA, EU, Russia, Iraq, Afghanistan etc. so-called 'democracy' failed and gradually came to a dictatorship of small groups of puppeteers or dictators.

The only remaining way would be to transform modern societies to theocracies.
The system is meanwhile very successfully applied in Israel.
Just google 'Theocracy in Israel'

Why former Christian countries can not launch Theocracy again?

There is absolutely no rational reason to put religion back in charge of governance, the last time that happened we ended up with the dark ages and millions dead due to lunacy and disease.

I don't think democracy has failed in the United States. Of course, I also don't understand lumping the U.S. in with Russia, Iraq, or Afghanistan.

Only in the last 100 years more as 500m were violently murdered in the name of Democracy and Socialism.
Almost 10m just within few years after 9/11.

For comparison:

The Spanish Inquisition seems to hold the greatest notoriety. However, evidence shows that between 1540 and 1700, only 828 persons were executed, or one out of eight cases. 90% of the accused were never tortured. Throughout the entire Spanish Empire, between 1560 and 1614, only 2% of the cases brought before the Inquisition resulted in execution.

Is the Catholic Church alone guilty of an “inquisition”? Hardly. During the Protestant revolt, Luther, Zwingli, Calvin, and the English Tudors all used and condoned torture and capital punishment for heresy. For instance, John Calvin, during his rule of Geneva between 1546-64, had 58 executed for heresy or serious sin, 73 exiled, and 900 imprisoned out of a population of 20,000. In England during the reign of Elizabeth I (1559-1603), over 250 Catholics were executed, many first suffering horrible tortures; many were sentenced to being hung, drawn, and quartered (hung until unconscious, disemboweled, and then cut into four pieces) and priests had the added punishment of being emasculated. Moreover, in post-Reformation Europe, Britain executed over 30,000 as witches, and Germany, over 100,000.

That's a bit of an overgeneralization. Do you vote?

Christian churches already have an immense amount of power and privilege in western countries. I fail to see why they need more. I don't feel any desire to be ruled over by a theocracy. If I wanted that I would move to Iran.

Transform modern societies? In to what?

Also, if you were granted supreme dictatorship and Lord Of the Land, exactly what form of theocratic regime would you impose over the USofA???

Since you're obviously 100% opposed to the Constitution & Bill Of Rights, what else would you change? Would you shred it and re-write it with a much different set of rules???

One more question. How old are you?
I'm guessing perhaps in your late 70's, or older.

I have the same opinion about theologians they talk a lot but fail to deliver.

I do not think so.
Christianity is almost dead in EU, in the US under attack.
The only institution which enjoys privileges is Judaism, look Huge Hanukkah Menorahs near any Parliament or President palace in the western world.
Just imagine the outrage if a church dared to erect a huge cross in vicinity of the White House

Because you vote does nothing, unimportant who win you are fooled.

Question:

Are Israelis idiots?
Why Israel going to launch a Theocracy.
Because having this form a state can survive thousand years.
In difference to western societies who will be replaced by radical Caliphates within thirty years.
Sweden at first, USA as the last

Theologians kept societies alive within thousands years.
Demagogues ruined them within a couple of decades.

Why do you hold Israel as a gold standard for anything????
A country that probably wouldn't exist at all today if not for the USofA.

I'll raise you a giant one, and throw you The Netherlands as a much better gold standard for ALL people.
Safe, high standard of living, long life expectancy.....very little religion.

It is not any human's place to erect a Theocracy...that is God's place and He'll do so, through His son, Jesus Christ, in His own due time...

“In the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed. And this kingdom will not be passed on to any other people. It will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, and it alone will stand forever," Daniel 2:44

The seventh angel blew his trumpet. And there were loud voices in heaven, saying: “The kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he will rule as king forever and ever.” Revelation 11:15

Christianity is not "almost dead" in Europe. Almost every country in Europe is majority christian of some denomination, and the catholic church remains very powerful. In Bavaria for example, the church is permitted to levy taxes for the upkeep of churches and cathedrals, in exchange for offering communion. And in protestant countries the Monarch is often the head of the church as well, for example in the Anglican Church, or in the Swedish church. So we can see that Christianity remains very influential in Europe.
