Don't vote is there the same number of times as do vote. God said nothing either way, so it isn't that important. I vote just to show my approval or disapproval of a person or proposed program or law. My vote has never decided anything.
God decides who will rule. The Bible says so in several places. IMO, Since real Christians are a minority, and this is an ungodly country, He gives us ungodly leaders. Just the kind we deserve. You won't agree, of course, but that does not change the facts. If you read the verses I quoted, what did you find there to indicate your position had any validity? Maybe I missed something.

I thought perhaps that was one reason He gave us a free and godly nation with the freedom to keep it that way by voting for God-fearing leaders. To the heathens he gave kings and dictators.

It was what is in the Bible. Surely you do not think that your vote can override God's will.

How does this thing you believe about humans electing their leaders fit in with what the Bible says in 2nd Chron. 6:5-6, Prov.8:15-16, Isaiah 19:4, Daniel 2:20-21, Daniel 2:38? Other than you and the author being all wet about your power to put rulers in place, it was a very good article, what any reasonable Christian would believe.
