Kingdom of Heaven vs. sharia
In Israel, civil cases under the [[Halakhah]] (traditional Jewish law based on the [[Torah]]) are allowed.

==Theocracy and the Kingdom of Heaven==
In a society where most people are centered on God, and really in touch with His love and His will, the formal system of laws and courts will probably be less necessary.
[[Sun Myung Moon|Rev. Moon]] said, "Eventually we will not need elections. If people go back to their hometowns and serve they will be be asked to take public offices, become a king or queen, whoever becomes the center of their hometown does not need to be elected." (unofficial sermon notes, Nov. 23, 2010)
This idea is in contrast to the [[Taliban]]-style theocracy, in which [[Sharia law]] is imposed with sticks and whips and swords.
