The most recent attempt to alter the constitution came from the far right. Does that mean that they don't care either?

Amending the Constitution (for better or for worse)- is very different than finding things in the Constitution that aren't there to be found.

Perhaps- and I will let Reaver verify his opinion- that it is less about "changing" than bastardizing it for anyones ideological purposes.

Thankee Neph. That is basically what I was referring to. The "reinterpreting" of the Constitution to mean what you want it to mean. That's just wrong. Times change, and things need to be added. But the Constitution is what it is, and it's core should not be altered. That's right, not even to remove those pesky references to "God", and "Our Creator". What were they thinking adding all of that religious rhetoric?!? Didn't they know they'd alienate people? Sheesh!

I realize it's been a whole week since I last read the Constitution, but I don't recall seeing any references to "God" or "Our Creator."

Reaver · 10-12-2005, 03:06 PM

Gah! You're right! I was thinking of the Declaration of Indepenence when it came to references to God. My mistake!
