The U.S. is NOT a Democracy
« on: July 17, 2021, 05:08:13 PM »
We are a Constitutional Republic. I've said this many times, but this is a short video put out by the Epoch Times that explains it well:

Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest judgment:
-Exd 23:2


“A pure democracy can admit no cure for the mischiefs of faction. A common passion or interest will be felt by a majority, and there is nothing to check the inducements to sacrifice the weaker party. Hence it is, that democracies have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property; and have, in general, been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths.”
-James Madison, Federalist Papers

I hope that helps everyone understand why we are a Constitutional Republic, which is exactly what God originally set up for the Jews to have as well (until they rejected it for a king).
The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.
-Psa 34:18
