Thomas paine criticized the king for

Thomas Paine believed the selection of kings to be unnatural because people are born as kings and nothing assures that they'll be good leaders. He argues that nature disapproves otherwise there wouldn't be "a butt for a lion." He says that mankind is originally equal in order of creation. Says that the colonists have been wronged too many times to attempt reconciliation with the British. In response to the argument that America has flourished under British rule, and therefore ought to stay under the king, Paine says that such an argument fails to realize that America has evolved and no longer needs Britain's help. Some say that Britain has protected America, and therefore deserves allegiance, but Paine responds that Britain has only watched over America in order to secure its own economic well-being. Paine adds that most recently, instead of watching over the colonies, the British have been attacking them, and are therefore undeserving of American loyalty.The conclusion Paine reaches is that the practice of monarchy originates from sin, and is an institution that the Bible and God condemn.
