Some of them yes.
In those days most people thought the king was appointed by God. To be an Englishman and rebel against the king was unthinkable.
But if you believe only in a Creator deity, who doesn't bother appointing kings, that rebellion becomes thinkable. You would only be rebelling against a cruel and arbitrary king, not against God's will.
Jim James, you really do have a shaky but ideological grasp of history don't you? No englishman believed in the Divine Right of Kings since parliament chopped off King Charlie's noggin in 1649 and knew full well that Georgie was a creation of parliament. Type in the search term "Glorious Revolution". Excuse me? I've run into posters right here who believe in the Divine Right of Kings. Why, it says so right in the Bible! "Trump is appointed by God," my father said to me. Since then, he's figured out what Trump is. Some are a mite slower than others, but get there eventually. Others never get there at all. Jim

Jim Gotcha. Interesting that so many people think we were founded by really religious people….. It's no accident the Declaration speaks of a "Creator," and that neither "God" nor "Creator" appear in the Constitution. Jim

And an even less understanding of scripture or misunderstanding or recollection of what others may or may not have said. You're really trolling tonight.

Warrior, what do you think is the source of the Divine Right of Kings?
What is your understanding of Romans 13:1-2?
"Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.
Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves."

Jim Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you. Goodnight, James

I am a practicing Catholic and proud of it . Pope Francis is definitely the most left leaning Pope in my life time ,however he is not breaking any new ground here ,this is old news ! I think this issue is has to do with some oath as to who our allegiance is to ,.I am a Catholic Christian and my sole allegiance is to Catholic Christian doctrine which is based on the Scriptures .Love your neighbor as your self ! God Bless America
