Tally ho! Guten tag!
THEOCRACY OR SECULARISM, which of these do you think is the best to be implemented in a country?
And I'd like to hear your arguments as well
Cheers!
Secularism. I simply cannot conceive of decent justifications for a theocracy of any kind. Heck, the only justifications I can think of at all are varying degrees of "it's cool". Much like non-constitutional monarchies, really.
It is not up to the state to interfere in the religious lives of its citizens. Individuals ought to be free to worship, or not worship, as they please without any support or condemnation from their government, and the government should not condone nor condemn any particular religious practice that does not violate its laws.
Government exists to protect the people, first and foremost. That includes making, enforcing, and interpreting laws. Laws should exist solely to further that goal of protecting the people. Therefore, laws should only be made that address and prevent real, measurable harm to the people. What Gods people worship, or choose to not worship, brings no inherent, direct harm to anyone, and therefore is not a matter in which the law should get involved, unless specific practices violate the country's already-standing laws.
I also have a personal stake in this. I choose to give homage to the Old Gods, and in doing so harm nobody. My rights should not be compromised because I choose not to give homage to whatever Gods a hypothetical theocratic government officially honors, nor should anyone else's rights be compromised for the same, or choosing to not give homage, or even believe in the existence of, any Gods.
