theocracy

Government by divine guidance or by officials who are regarded as divinely guided. In many theocracies, government leaders are members of the clergy, and the state's legal system is based on religious law. Theocratic rule was typical of early civilizations. The Enlightenment marked the end of theocracy in most Western countries. Contemporary examples of theocracies include Saudi Arabia, Iran, and the Vatican. See also church and state; divine kingship.

What kills me is that they blame all evils in the world on a very narrow definition of the liberal ideology. I tend to think that all that violence, sex, etc. on our television and movies is a result of the very conservative concepts of corporations going wild in their constant search for more and more money....the very capitalistic concept of what's good for the corporation is good for America. I don't agree at all with what I see on television.....espectially those damn ads about aids to those with "erectile dysfunction"....my GOD!.....give it a break!
