Where do you think that the Founders got their ideas from? It wasn't the kings in the Bible- it was PAGAN ancient Rome and PAGAN ancient Greece, just like where all Western Civilization flows from.
Even Christianity "borrowed" large portions of PAGAN ideas.

Just out of curiosity (and not trying to deflect from whatever you say to f.c because I enjoy watching) are you pagan? If so, what type of pagan?
