Belief in the Abrahamic God entails belief in the wisdom of His laws and obedience to them. This means belief in God logically and necessarily entails theocracy. Those who object to this do not in fact worship God, but liberal democracy.
Religions have been around for longer than man-made political ideologies, so if we want our civilisation to last, we should choose an Abrahamic faith rather than make up a political ideology that has no official handbook whose unstated principles are easily subverted by vote-hungry politicians. Religion however has ancient scripture containing what are said to be God's laws.
In the West, there are only two possible Abrahamic faiths to choose from for gentiles, and one of them has obviously failed.
Once we and our political classes have come to the inescapable conclusion of changing the official national religion, this would mean changing the political system too.
When this happens, we would have a one party theocracy as naturally as night follows day.
I have a nasty feeling that people are not going to submit to truth and logic, but try to impose on events some peculiar narrative of their own to fend off the inevitable, until the fool does finally what the wise man does at once.
When I am dictatrix of a one party theocracy governed by the principles of Secular Koranism, I will change the syllabus for Philosophy in academia and require that philosophers direct their minds to dividing themselves into two schools of thought: one which sees the wisdom of His laws and one which denies it.
We know which School is going to win the debate on grounds of Truth, Logic and Morality alone, even if I were not dictatrix, don't we?
