1.  Do you know of a passage in which Jesus Christ speaks to the subject
of what pattern of civil government the Romans ought to have?  If you
do not, then an argument from silence is no argument at all.

2.  "It seems God thought" is not exactly the abundance of Scripture you
claimed earlier in your post you were going to adduce.

IMO this sword cuts two ways... Can anyone point to an abundance of
scripture where God says anything about the pattern of civil government
positive or negative? It would seem all are speaking from silence, which is
no voice at all.
