Theocracy Versus Democracy

Published: Dec. 20, 2022, 2:57 p.m.

It seems the modern world is committed to making democracy work rarely giving theocracy a thought, unless it is an atheist ranting against the evil it represents to them. But democracy based on the power of the people has never explained why people have a right to the power they are said to exercise. Theocracy, on the other hand, has suffered due to the fact there are two quite distinct kinds as there are two distinct conceptions of god. A Western Theocracy is a far different kind of thing than an Eastern Theocracy, which incidentally, is the source of mankind\u2019s ideas concerning democracy.
