    God totally “raises up those in authority,” he just makes oopsies here and there all the fucking time.

    Or maybe he’s evil. Or he changes his mind a lot. Or maybe, possibly, y’know… the dude doesn’t exist.

      Nonono you see God raises up all the “good” people, all the “bad” people were godless heathens.

      See the “good” people appeal to Gods followers by claiming to be a prophet of gods wisdom and telling them to vote for them on faith. The “bad” people tricked and manipulated others into gaining their power by posing as false prophets and liars.

      Do you see the difference?
