Is the concept of "the State" a morally legitimate concept?

To anyone who accepts Christian ethics, "the State" is intuitively immoral. It's easy to accept Anarchism if one is a Christian, but it takes volumes for a Professor of Political Science to justify "the State."

• Christian ethics commands love of enemy; "the State" claims the right to kill enemies.
• Christian ethics prohibits theft; "the State" would not exist without theft ("taxation").

The chronicle of human history infallibly recorded in Scripture also gives us an anarchistic history of the human race. Again, this is true at first glance, and it takes intellectual gymnastics to overcome this obvious perception

A. NO STATE BEFORE THE FALL

B. NO STATE AFTER THE FALL
