Should the Constitution be regularly revised?

[Archivist]

Either way. The point is the same. How much effort do you expect out of someone on a forum? Most of this isn't going to do anyone any good. It is not like we are organizing rallies or actually making a big difference however that might be done. Maybe I failed this class in school?

There is a big difference. The Constitution is the Supreme Law of the Land. The only legal authority contained in the Declaration is to declare us to be an independent nation.

Do you imagine that will continue once they are in the business of punishing thought crimes in Christian Kampuchea?

I have been watched more than just about any human on this planet and I wouldn't doubt that the government is working on reading our minds. I'm read about some of the experiments. However; the most secret part of our government doesn't make all of what they do known.

They give people medication without people knowing it. They have different types of medication that is used to test a person. I know because I was a child when one of the most powerful people in the world began this on me. This person could come to a town or make a phone call and all the cops could be jumping on one leg if he told them to.

Picky, picky.

You may be better received in this part of the forum.

Either way. The point is the same.

Except it's not.

The Declaration of Independence was a propaganda piece intended to rally support from foreign powers -- or at the very least, keep them from supporting England. It's a marvelous piece of historical literature, but it holds no power of law in the country.

The Constitution is a blueprint for how our government is to be organized. It contains (although not originally; it was added later) the Bill of Rights, which, contrary to the name, is not a listing of what rights the people have, but what limitations the government has... in short, a listing of all the things Uncle Sam cannot do.

And that, boys and girls, should at least be re-examined every once in a while...

How much effort do you expect out of someone on a forum?

Some would be nice.

A simple error was made, and it wasn't even yours -- funny how much effort you've put into your response... it is not like you are organizing rallies or actually making a big difference...

Maybe I failed this class in school?

Luckily your education can continue here...

Perhaps. But important.

 

[TRVL ONE]

Okay, if you’re going to be short and dismissive, then no further attempts at serious discourse with you is possible.

Have a good life.
Enjoy Heaven!

You're right I need to get it together. Thanks.

Okay. Hmm. I would imagine it is rare for people to change their opinion on a forum anyways. Is it even worth the effort?

Enjoy your day and do good. God bless.

I have been watched more than just about any human on this planet

Ooooookaaaayyyy......

Pamela Anderson?

 

[OldWiseGuy]

Everyone sins, so everyone needs to be watched.

By who?

 

[USincognito]

It would entail many things. I would have to spend several days typing it out and I'm not doing that, yet.

I'm not asking for a treatise or manifesto. I'm asking for a few bullet points.

 

[Sparagmos]

The framers of the Constitution correctly asserted that there are natural rights that are eternal, inherent, and even God-given. They were, in fact, the culmination of centuries of progress in Western law and thought.

Correct. But that progress didn’t stop two centuries ago. So the constitution is no longer the culmination of all progress in thought and political philosophy.

The bible is greater than the bill of right or constition

Good luck with that.

 

[USincognito]

Self government? A people by the people and for the people? I assume that is what you are saying? If that is so, which I believe it is then you are deceived, because this country is controlled by a different group all together.

Ooooo! Do tell. The Illuminati? International Bankers? The Queen of England? Shape Shifting Lizard People?

 

[USincognito]

You're funny. You know nothing of using the bible on every issue in life. It would take years for you to even begin to understand.

Which chapters cover automobile repair, categories of hurricanes and the relationship between caecilians and other amphibians?

 

[Shiloh Raven]

The bible is greater than the bill of right or constition

Again, which version of the Bible and which doctrinal interpretation of that chosen Bible version?

Thanks for clearing that up. Now I understand where you’re coming from....

I'm talking about having a Christian country, not what we have now.

I can see it now... Christians from all over America having it out over which version of Christianity will be the top dog in the federal government. Catholics having it out with Protestants. Protestants having it out with other Protestants. But wait... here comes the Orthodox and all the other Christians who feel they don't belong with either the Catholics or the Orthodox or they've been ostracized by some other Protestants. And then comes the accusations that this Christian or that Christian aren't true Christians because they don't believe in this or that favored doctrine of this or that other Christians believe in.

Folks, I think we need to realize what we're dealing with hear and treat them accordingly.

This person is not well.
