What should be targeted is a concept of organic, and not just mechanic, democracy that preserves the rule of law, separation of powers, and that is participatory and pluralistic.

China is on a march toward rule of law and democracy.

The rule of law is the basis for any democracy. And without the rule of law in democracy, you have chaos.

Christians - at least Christians in a liberal democracy - have accepted, after Thomas Hobbes, that they must obey the secular rule of law; that there must be a separation of church and state.

No matter who you are or what you intend to do, you should not exceed the boundaries of the rule of law.

In other words, the bar should be maintained at the level of a pluralistic and participatory democracy.
