Theocrats are not the problem, but theocrats with Final Solution goals are. Can you follow that, or do you hate your own government so much that we've lost you to an imaginary world of cognitive dissonance?

Ho ho! Because I disagree with Rumsfeld, I hate America? I guess disagreeing with the SecDef puts me smack into Berkeley with the hippies.
And I disagree. Theocrats ARE the problem, final solution goals or not. Theocracies are the absolute worst form of government that exists, both in terms of living conditions and civil liberties.
Scratch a theocrat, and you'll find a fanatic. And it is this fanaticism that causes "final solution" thinking, whether the fanatic be fascist, communist, or religious.
