Quote: Democracy's Greatest Challenge

"But human affairs have scarcely  ever been so happily constituted as that the [morally] better course pleased the greater number. Hence the private vices of the multitude have generally resulted in public error, or rather that common consent in vice which these worthy men would have to be law."

-John Calvin, Institutes, p13.

Not only are all men fallen, but society and culture also are fallen. Every system of government will have to fight against the natural tendency in man, and groups of men, to do evil. What is needed isn't a new form of government, or a return to the good old days of democracy (founding fathers of America, constitution, etc.), but rather that the word of God would reign. Any government, whether it is a democracy or autocracy or in between, must first recognize that God is King, and His word must be obeyed.
