our republican form of government derives from Greek and Native American

practices.

Christians,however, derive their government from more or less monarchical and heirarchical pagan priest religions -- hence the heirarchy of the Church today -- and this against the stream of the Bible.

Deuteronomy16 -- in Acts where Deacons are chosen -- they all are obvious references to electing the leaders in question, the Israelites being a Semitic peoples, with a Democratic heritage (per Ebla).  Ekklesia (the name rendered "Church" in the N.T.) is a democratic body   The "white stone" in Revelation denotes voting (white being in favor of  and black denoting being against).

But Christian tradition eliminates Democracy.
