Oh, that will be of comfort to Catholics who are stoned for idolatry. And to blasphemers who watch South Park.

I'm sorry to burst your bubble, but Catholicism has created many more "theocracies" than any form of Protestantism ever has. In fact, to this day ultra-rightwing Catholics insist that all mankind has a statutory obligation to observe "the true religion," though even then most people are going to fry in hell for all eternity anyway (since you have to work your own way in and most people aren't good enough to make it).

Any time chr*stianity, whether Protestant, Catholic, or any other kind, advocates "theocracy" or rule by "Biblical law" it is taking a step backwards from its original anti-Torah rebellion. What this all proves is that the anti-Torah rhetoric of all forms of chr*stianity eventually turn into hypocrisy.

Judaism (Noachidism for non-Jews) is a statutory religion based on Divine Law pure and simple, with no need to manufacture an antinomian argument (which would eventually have to be discarded anyway) in order to overthrow a previous revelation. The Messianic Era, the Kingdom of G-d on earth, will see all mankind governed by Divine Law. That's what messianism is all about.

I know you guys think that by treating Judaism as if it were never implicated in Biblical Theocracy, as if it were a purely liberal "enlightenment" religion, that you are paying it a compliment ("unlike chr*stians, Jews have never done any of that reactionary Theocratic stuff!"). Unfortunately, it isn't a compliment, and your stealing Jewish concepts and attributing them to chr*stianity is merely another form of theological anti-Semitism. Credit where credit is due, please.
