I hope I did this correctly.
Actually when speaking of Rushdoony, Bahnsen, and North, the correct word is Theonomy. I dont know what Admanson's view is.
Theocracy is literally "rule of god", and Theonomy is literally the "rule of the law" specifically the Noahic law. So Theonomy is a type of Theocracy; clearly the Reconstructionists are Theonomists.

I regard with absolute horror, but I also must assume he holds that

leads him to naturally oppose the bishop's consecration. But is Admanson
an Episcopal? If not -- is is ethical for him to fund one side in a fight
he has no stake in? And to what extent should he make his funding public?
The Noahide Laws were passed into law in the US in 1991. You must be absolutely horrified!
A religious bloc vote by a religious community propelled Hilary Clinton to the Senate when New Square NY voted 1400 to 12 after Hilary's visit to the rabbi.
The word is theocracy.
To suggest that Christians not use wealth to protect their "altars" is naive.
