    When i come accross these coined phrase like "theocratic school" I wonder if it really is time to live a Theocracy on earth, and it it is not an exageration by GB to make people think they occupy a undisputable place in that theocracy where anybody who challenges them, challenges THEOS.

    Is the theocratic attitude on earth christian? What do you think guys?

    Theocracy is just like Hitchens said: 'a celestial North Korea'. Theocracy is another form of absolute control of another person and that in itself is deplorable. As a JW I always wondered what theocracy really meant and what it would be like, but the way the WT presents its theocracy only looks good on paper just like communism.

    " Theocracy", where Jesus is God's, " Executive Officer." If you are not sickened by that philosophy, then I don't know what else to say....

    The universe IS ruled by law. try to defy them, but

    JESUS in John 10:34: -- you are gods---

    WT writers take the bible very seriously.

    theocracy is a nice theory, in theory only.

    The goal of the Taliban is theocracy.

    England was subjected to one for a while under Oliver Cromwell.

    Theocracy = tyranny of the very worst kind. Not only does it seek to regulate people's actions but also their thoughts.

    "Do not covet...." was an early attempt at theocratic thought control.

    Yea Cofty good point about Cromwell. Under that Theocracy all fun stuff like Maypoles, the Theater, Christmas etc were banned.

    Of course, it would be different under the WT/GB rule, they love fun stuff like ............er............ well, we could all get together and sing those wonderful Kindom Songs, wont it be happyfying !

    Theocracy is just another word for rule by men. Totalitarian rule at that.
