Many people in America believe that democracy will solve the world's problem. When George Bush II attacked Iraq, he hoped to inject democracy into Iraq and the Middle East and usher in a new period of peace and justice. Now Obama believes that the Jasmine Revolution will bring democracy in the Arab world and will resolve all the economic problems and injustice.
The Bible says nothing about democracy. The Bible does not favour any form of human government. The Bible requires us to obey the government (Romans 13:1-7), but only when it does not contradict God's commandment (Acts 5:29).
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. (Matthew 6:33 KJV)
