Can there be a religious majority without a theocracy?
In my opinion, the religious public in Israel, at least those who vote for religious Zionism and the Haredim, is anti-liberal in essence, it is a fairly conservative and closed religion. (Of course, there may be different individuals, but as a public it is ultra-conservative) In addition, there are many people like Smotrich who explicitly admit that they promote theocracy. (The traditional public, in my opinion, is far from these perceptions) I don’t really know about the Haredim, but I believe so. The question is, can there be a situation where the religious public will be the majority in Israel and there still won’t be a theocracy? Theocracy, as far as I’m concerned, is the Sanhedrin, the king of Torah law, and all that goes with it? In other words, am I really right that the Haredim and religious Zionism, at least those who sit in the Knesset, are trying and will try to push for a theocracy?
