After reading the passage by John Wise, I outlined it. Democracy is a political form of government the people ruled by the representatives they elected. The representatives create the laws by combining the natural rights of people and then limiting them. In John Wise's written work, he believes that mixing religious laws (Christianity) is considered a frame work of democracy. Giving people too much power is dangerous and probably cause riots toward the government. He considers the people who follow the government not as slaves but as servants.Rulers rely on their servants, which keeps balance in society.
In his written work, his thesis is mainly about the golden rule. The golden rule is laws of natural laws and Christian laws. These laws is what balances democracy. People who oppose the laws are considered unnatural and fosters inequality. These innate the wellness of human beings
