What is nonsense is your attempt to deny Congress a power expressly reserved to them by the Constitution.

Congress does not, nor have they EVER HAD, the ability to CHANGE THE MEANING OF WORDS in the US Constitution.

This power is FORBIDDEN. Not only is it NOT ALLOWED, it can NEVER be allowed. It would be an open door to tyranny.

To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof.

Congress cannot repeal the law of nature. It is not among their powers.

But enough of me citing the Constitution, historical facts, and laws of the land. Your turn to start citing references to support your position.

Please. You've barely scratched the surface, and what bits you do cite, you get completely wrong. You are in the kiddie pool of this debate, and until you move into deeper waters, i'm not really interested in trading historical cites with you.

You state that I’ve barely scratched the surface with my citations yet you are unable to make any citations to support your opinion. You claim that I’m in the kiddie pool but brother, you are not even wet.

No one (other than yourself) is asserting that Congress is attempting to alter the meaning of words.

No one (other than yourself) is asserting that Congress is attempting to alter or repeal a law of nature.

You say you don’t want to trade historical cites ... fine, start citing laws, or the Constitution. Until you can do that you are just spouting off with your unsupported opinion.
