Is this sentence with two woulds grammatically correct?

"As easy as it would be to return to Christian patriarchy, I don't think most people would be delighted."

Or is it better if I say: "As easy as it was to.. ?"
>>
it's redundant but if anything it's "delighted" that's the poor choice here.
>>
I think it should be 'the Christian system of patriarchy', and delighted sounds wrong in that sentence. You also haven't explained why it would be easy.
>>
You can have "would" twice in the same sentence. There is no reason against it. Using "As easy as it was" would give the sentence a different meaning.

Thanks for the answers! And yes, that's a poor sentence I came up with.
