It has? How about the U.S. Constitution? Was it composed by Satan? :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
To my mind, the U.S. Constitution is a "liberal" document and an affront to conservative and religious, particularity Christian, dogma. As it should be. The Constitution entrenches in law--at the constitutional level--much that conservatives abhor. For example, the 14th Amendment says, in part,
No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
That says to me, under "liberty", that such thanks as same sex marriage, the right to choose, etc. are all protected by the Constitution.
The Constitution also expressly grants freedom of religion which means those who promote the U.S. as a Christian nation are just plain wrong.
As I say, the Constitution of the United States is a liberal not a conservative document. And if the Nine were, in fact, strict constructionists, the US would be far more liberal than it now is and Roe v. Wade would never be in danger of being overturned.
