Suppose those are your ONLY choices. To help put things in perspective, which group WANTS to establish a theocracy, the Christians or the Muslims?

Can't you add a third less repressive choice, like Hitler or something.

Well, the Christians don't really want any Theocracy, to answer your last Question.
However, assuming it comes to that, then, I'd say Christian.
Why? Because
[a] the Muslims are already creating an atmosphere where all the people of the other Faiths will soon group together and fight them to put an end to their stupidity of Fanatic Terrorism.
[b] Considering their numbers and technology, they'll lose.
[c] We already know what Islamic Theocracy can be like from the existent Nations. Life there would be unbearable for those like us there.
[d] Islamic Theocracy doesn't tolerate a non-Muslim and I'm one of those.
You might find that a lot of Muslims belonging to non-Sunni Sects, would actually prefer to live in the Christian Theocracy rather than Muslim!? That should speak volumes for Islam.

I'd rather live under the Christian one, but only if was a TRUE Christian theocracy. In other words, they would have to follow the laws and teachings of Christ.
It's the Muslims that have many out there. I wouldn't want to live in those countries.

Both want to establish theocratic states.
I would prefer it to be Christian as true Christianity allows for personal freedoms and personal choices to be made; where as Muslims are extremely strict (see the middle east.) You may be imprisoned for some things that are currently not crimes. But there would be no "pre-emptive wars" (Iraq) only defensive wars (attacked first.) There would be an end to the death penalty as a true Christian theocracy would leave life or death only to God.
We would spend more on being equals in society and less on pure capitalism and greed. Greed would likely be illegal and punishable by jail. Taxes would be based on fairness and not on who is in power. Our old and poor would be cared for far better.
This is the Christian way as espoused by Christ and Paul.

I think I'd rather live under a Christian theocracy, because of what we hear about the treatment given to women in the Muslim world.

Neither because in the end it would come to a person's interpretation of the religion. Which would lead to nothing but trouble, besides having grown up in a society that has religious freedom to worship or not to. It would be to much of a change I would cross the river into Mexico.
For people that say the Muslim theocracy would be worse just remember things that were done in the name of Christ, the Spanish inqusition, the Crusades, and little parties like the Salem Witch Trials.

I already live in a Christian theocracy. And I don't mean the country I live in. My life is ruled by God's laws. Jesus told us to obey 'Caesars laws' as long as they don't go contrary to God's laws, and in everything I follow what God's law states. That's the closest thing to a true theocracy this world will see before Armageddon.
