Kinder, gentler theocracy? They're trying to convert you, dude.
Here's what life in a theocratic Mormon state (for example, Utah Territory in the 19th century) would be like:
* Alcohol and tobacco banned
* LDS doctrine is official state faith
* Blending of secular and spiritual leadership (LDS leaders acted much like medieval Popes, issuing directives in both realms)
* Intolerance of (and sometimes overt violence against) "gentiles"
* White supremacy encoded in Church and (therefore) state law
* Pervasive woman-hating; Mormon men could (and some still do!) "possess" more than one wife, like so many cattle
Before the United States took a hand, that is where their iron "self-discipline" brought them in the 19th century.

They have problems in their history and founding of course, but that applies to most religions.
My given opinion is in regards to the church and its followers now, not in the 19th century. If you want to live in the past then that's your business, but I prefer living in the present.
