Theocracy is an ideology that is based upon vicarious autotheism- the sense that oneself and like-minded people collectively constitute a monotheist god. Theocracy is the typical manifestation of authoritarian collectivism, though authoritarian collectivism often has a secular veneer.
Common aspects of theocracy include:
- absence of the right of suicide
- absence of the right of abortion
- absence of the right of genital integrity
- absence of the right to use contraception
- absence of the right of polyamory
- absence of the right of prostitution
- absence of the right to view attractive parts of people other than those of one's spouse
- absence of the right to masturbate
- absence of the right to eat alone
- absence of the right to have pleasure alone in general
- coerced performance of symbolic labors, especially for youth (such as reciting the koran until it is memorized, or homework (which has a secular veneer) )
- coerced burning of, or otherwise sacrifice of, food (this aspect does not exist in modern-day theocracies, having been replaced by an increase in symbolic labor)
