Theocracy: The Root of Prohibition

Can anyone have any doubt that Prohibition is theocratic in origin, intent, support and effect?

Even though the majority of its victims are, as always and everywhere, the theocrats' own co-religionists who fail to measure up to the theocrats' own standards of "holiness", which as always and everywhere are the theocrats themselves?

And regardless of the beliefs or natures of the "professionals" that no such totalitarian campaign ever has any difficulty in recruiting to run it?
