    Actually, it is defined as God-directed government. I guess the GB was not lying. They ARE appointed! The`oc´ra`cy

    n. 1. Government of a state by the immediate direction or administration of God; hence, the exercise of political authority by priests as representing the Deity.
    2. The state thus governed, as the Hebrew commonwealth before it became a kingdom.

    I decided I wouldnt want to live under one, even when I was still asleep thinking JWs have the truth. The realiztion that I dinnt want the carrot they dangled evaporated their power over me. This enabled me to start truly awakening to TTATT.

    To answer your question, I get a picture of a tyrannical extreme govt. Saudi Arabia, Iran, the Taliban, and the Spanish Inquisition come to mind.

    Theocracy v. Theocrazy

    Theocracy is what you get when God rules.

    Theocrazy is what you get when men rule while claiming they rule for God.

    It's a word I haven't seen in the bible. I read that Jesphus used this word.

    As for the WBT$, they use it as another of their loaded language words.
