“Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens:” This indicates that we are to choose, or elect God fearing men and women.

3. Now....to prove exactly what I posted:
a. "The most quoted source was the Bible.
Established in the original writings of our Founding Fathers we find that they discovered in Isaiah 33:22 the three branches of government: Isaiah 33:22 “For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; he will save us.” Here we see the judicial, the legislative and the executive branches.
In Ezra 7:24 we see where they established the tax exempt status of the church: Ezra 7:24 “Also we certify you, that touching any of the priests and Levites, singers, porters, Nethinims, or ministers of this house of God, it shall not be lawful to impose toll, tribute, or custom, upon them.”
When we look at our Constitution we see in Article 4 Section 4 that we are guaranteed a Republican form of government, that was found in Exodus 18
Looking at Article 3 Section 3 we see almost word for word Deuteronomy 17:6: ‘No person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the testimony of two Witnesses. . .’ Deuteronomy 17:6 “At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses. . .”. The next paragraph in Article 3 Section 3 refers to who should pay the price for treason. In England, they could punish the sons for the trespasses of the father, if the father died."

b. "This question was asked by political science professors at the University of Houston. They rightfully felt that they could determine the source of the Founders’ ideas if they could collect the writings from the Founding Era and see whom the Founders were quoting.
The researchers assembled 15,000 writings from the founding Era – no small sample – and searched those writings. That project spanned ten years; but at the end of that time, the researchers had isolated 3,154 direct quotes made by the Founders and had identified the source of those quotes.
The researchers discovered that Baron Charles de Montesquieu was the man quoted most often by the founding fathers, with 8.3 percent of the Founders’ quotes being taken from his writings. Sir William Blackstone was the second most-quoted individual with 7.9 percent of the Founder’s quotes, and John Locke was third with 2.9 percent.
Surprisingly, the researchers discovered that the founders quoted directly out of the bible 4 times more than they quoted Montesquieu, 4 times more often than they quoted Blackstone, and 12 times more often than they quoted John Locke. Thirty four percent of the Founders’ quotes came directly out of the bible.
So, while 34% of the Founders’ quotes came directly out of the Bible, many of their quotes were taken from men – like Blackstone – who had used the Bible to arrive at their own conclusions.”
This doesn’t even include Supreme Court decisions, Congressional records, speeches, inaugurations, etc. all of which include sources of Biblical content and concepts. I can produce those as well, if need be ,as well as what was taught in American schools for the first 175 years.

Yes. The whole post. There is no KING in our government. There is no tax exemption from churches in the constitution. There was never a republican form of government mentioned anywhere in the Bible.
If you were intelligent enough to read the Federalist Papers, you would see that Lycurgus of Sparta is mentioned, but characters from the Bible are not. There's a reason for that! The federalist papers drew upon examples of republics.

"Strongly guarded as is the separation between Religion & Govt in the Constitution of the United States the danger of encroachment by Ecclesiastical Bodies, may be illustrated by precedents already furnished in their short history... in Kentucky for example, where it was proposed to exempt Houses of Worship from taxes."

-- Benjamin Franklin; from letter to Richard Price (October 9, 1780)
I agree with that last sentence. That perfectly aligns with the Democrat party's belief that the Government's role is to be the wiser and more mature parent to the populace (children) who aren't capable of making informed decisions on their own. I don't know why mature intelligent adults would prefer to be governed in such a way.

For context, you should explain to all that, as a totalitarian, you are required to hate religion.
That explains your pretend-ignorance of the provenance of the Constitution and of America.
The Democratic political platform BELIEFS in the right to health care, right to marriage, and right to impose LGBT beliefs on others by law.
I think it's the other way PoliticalChic They have Mommy issues and don't trust churches and charities to take care of community and social programs by voluntary efforts and donations.
Do you NOT GET that the right to health care is a BELIEF.
It goes to pieces and gives rise to Hitlers or other leaders like Putin, who can bully their way to the top then tell everyone else what to do by dictating as head of their own religion through govt. You hope and pray you get the govt you want and not the kick in the pants you deserve. Pick your poison, whatever you wish on others tends to come back around and bite you later.
