Nero
The idea that Paul would tell Christians that they should submit to an emperor like Nero is absurd. Nero was a terrible man He did some evil things. Some historians think that he was mad. In many ways, Rome was a terrible empire. The small minority who were citizens had a good life. Many of the rest of the people were slaves, and those who were not slaves were often not much better off than slaves. The idea that God put Nero in place to make life on earth better for all people is ridiculous.
