Then move to Amend it and do so in a Constitutionally legal way. Instead, they cheat.

"Then move to Amend it and do so in a Constitutionally legal way. Instead, they cheat".

My comments below are not a dig at you, just something I have been thinking about concerning the amendment process.

The amendment process is the one thing I have had a hard time wrapping my head around and coming to a logical conclusion about, when it comes to amending our rights and why the Founding Fathers allowed it to be included.

If, as we say, our rights, in the Bill of Rights, are God given rights, which they are, how can our rights be amended, although it is a tough process, if they are God given rights? Only God should be able to give them, take them away or change them, not Congress/States, through an amendment process.

If our rights can be amended/taken away by Congress and the States, then they are not God given rights at all.

Maybe I am missing something or just thinking too hard
