Theocracy

Very strongly agree

No, marriage should be defined as between a man and woman

This answer is strongly aligned with theocratic ideology, as it maintains the traditional definition of marriage as being between a man and a woman, which is often rooted in religious beliefs. For example, Saudi Arabia, a theocratic state, does not recognize same-sex marriage and enforces strict laws based on Islamic teachings.

Strongly agree

No

Theocracies generally do not support the legalization of same-sex marriage due to religious beliefs. However, this answer does not specify any alternative arrangement, so it may not fully align with the theocratic stance on the issue. For example, the Vatican City, a theocratic state, does not recognize same-sex marriage.

Agree

No, allow civil unions but don’t call it marriage

Some theocracies might be open to the idea of civil unions as a compromise, but they would still prefer to maintain the traditional definition of marriage. This answer represents a more moderate stance that might be acceptable to some theocratic governments, but it is not the most strongly aligned with theocratic ideology.

Slightly agree

Take the government out of marriage and instead make it a religious decision

While theocracies are based on religious authority, this answer suggests removing government involvement in marriage altogether, which could weaken the influence of religious authorities on the institution of marriage. This stance might be seen as a compromise by some theocratic governments, but it is not the most strongly aligned with theocratic ideology.

Disagree

Yes, but allow churches the right to refuse same-sex ceremonies

This answer supports the legalization of same-sex marriage but allows churches to refuse same-sex ceremonies. While it acknowledges the rights of religious institutions, it still goes against the traditional definition of marriage upheld by most theocracies. Therefore, it is not strongly aligned with theocratic ideology.

Very strongly disagree

Yes

Theocracy is a form of government in which religious authorities rule in the name of a deity. Most theocratic governments have historically opposed same-sex marriage due to religious beliefs. For example, Iran, a theocratic state, does not recognize same-sex marriage and has strict laws against homosexuality.
