Very simple. One does not have the right to murder, because it denies a person the right to live. We do not have rights to violate the rights of others. (And in the many cases where it's hard to tell what the respective rights are, we have courts.)
So what is it about a theocracy that is so scary? The laws are already in force. But nothing less than the Will of the Creator can justify such laws!
A theocracy is scary because people are imperfect. As such they may well imperfectly interpret what God wants us to do. In their misinterpretation, they may compel others to act against God.
Obedience to and worship of God must be a free act. To compel it with a theocracy is to make such obedience and worship worthless. As such, a theocracy is an insult to God. Likewise, your call for a theocracy is an insult to God.
However, because people recognize God in all walks of life be it education, law, or even having IGWT on our coins doesn’t mean we’re somehow doomed to a “theorcracy”. In other words, if a president places his hand on the Bible when he’s sworn in...we’re all not doomed!
Which if Obama gets elected will SURELY make alot of godless libs squirm!
We’re FAR closer to a socialist state dictating that people can not have any shred of Christianity in public places and is to be kept behind closed doors on Sundays than we are to have proselytization patrols in the hallways of schools!
Simply no contest!
