Shogun, my brotha from anotha motha. I said based on biblical principals. The same way movies are based on real events. They took what they liked and came up with the rest. The same way they used parts of many philosophical writings and teachings. It is not the only basis for the nation but it is one. Too deny that is rather foolish.
???? As I remember the Bible promotes Monarchy, not Democracy. Did the Biblical God or Jesus gain power from some kind of election?
You need some ginko biloba for that memory, friend. The Bible doesn't promote any sort of political structure, because God is only concerned with such things insofar as they affect the states of people's souls.
And believe it or not, Obama is not God, nor is he comparable to God, so he doesn't get to skip the election process.
Actually, the United States of America is founded in direct opposition to biblical principles. Nowhere in the Bible is the power to govern drawn from the governed. Rather it is superimposed from above without consent of the governed, and without any rights accruing to them whatsoever.
Nowhere in the Bible does it lay out any sort of political structure whatsoever, Mensa Boy. God isn't a President or Prime Minister. He's God, not a political leader.
Millions of sperm, and THIS is the one that gets through.
Ho ho, and arrogant too? - The sign of true ignorance.
This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge? the same did God send [to be] a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel which appeared to him in the bush.
Anyone familiar with the Bible knows that it claims God sets up all rulers. And everyone he sets up (including Jesus) to rule as King. Not one of them is a president.
