Theocracy, i.e, a government which rules through a religion, is a great example of an authoritarian government. Through this system, the government will enforce laws of a church, religion or cult. This usually leads to civil rights being diminished and a creation of alot of "Victimless Crimes". Some activities that would most likely be illegal under a theocratic government would be things like adultery, drug/tobacco/alcohol use, premarital sex, speaking against the God/Gods/Deity, and perhaps certain types of media (depending on the content). In addition, a theocratic government may also impose laws that make religious observance mandatory, e.g. Daily prayer or attending church every week. A complete antithesis to this system would be a Libertarian form of government, where church and state are separate and civil rights are almost unlimited.
