Social agendas are un-constitutional.

The Constitution IS a social agenda.

I have to disagree with you about that.
The Constitution is primarily a limit on the powers of the Federal Government. The Bill of Rights while some might consider them "Social Instructions" were actually limits on the power of the States.

Social agendas are basically a way to force certain behaviours. The framers of the Constitution felt that the FREE MAN could guide his own life.

Spoken like a true "Progressive"

Here, silly me and millions of other adults thought it was establishing a rule of "Laws".

Please note that inalienable rights are not subject to the whim of "agenda".

Sorry.
