I may be blindly missing it, but nowhere in the Bible have I found any support for a representative democracy with three branches of government.
This model seems entirely based on secular principles, but I'm willing to be proved wrong. Please enlighten me where this form of government stems from Biblical standards.

If God believed in democracy, then He would have called for an election when Lucifer challenged Him.
Apparently, He didn't think He had a very good shot at winning.

U.S is not a Christian nation, but a masonic nation. The statue of liberty, the dollar bill, the obelisk in D.C, all are proof of this.
Yes Christianity would not support represenative democracy, but it is better than the alternative communism and the abolishment of God altogether.
The real problem lies in liberity vs equality it seems you cannot have it both ways. Once one tries to make everything fair, it takes away freedom, and vice versa.
America does not have a true democracy by the way, but a controlled democracy. A true democracy is when everyone gets to decide all of the issues.

I don't see a democracy being supported by any Scripture..
clearly Majority does not rule in heaven....

i know you don't want us to be a christian nation but thats besides the point...there is no description in the bible of
only one type of gov't allowed..I.E monarchy,democracy
dictatorship, republican or we love frogs...
a representative democracy seems to be the type
of gov't where Christianity fluorishes the most...
Get over it, we were founded on Christian principles
and by those that espoused God, Christ and the Holy Spirit......

You answered you own question.
You are right, you blindly missed it.
Keep searching.

Sorry, NH, it's not there. The bible is all "divine right of kings" and the American Constitution is all "separation of powers," so the two documents are just not going to agree.
