Re: Real-world sensitivities and game names
Even in a democracy there are a are recognized rights that all members of the society have that can't be violated by the majority.
A good counter example is if the majority wanted to dictate that the minority had no right to vote, well, denying that popular mandate certainly would be a lot more pro-democratic than allowing it to pass, wouldn't it?
If there are no restrictions on the power of the majority it's an ochlocracy not a democracy.
However, I think Agema is right in that you can still be a democratic state and mix religion and government.
