It’s laudable that people are still interested in basic constitutional principles rather than usurpations based on their personal beliefs. It happens so rarely that it’s comforting even if it is about porn.

      “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”
~Founding Father John Adams

What people seem not to comprehend is that America's failure to live up to her potential Constitutionally is directly related to her failure to live up to her potential morally.

Except that Thomas Paine was agnostic (possibly a Deist, though).

(And if you don’t know who he is, or what he did for our nation...)

Everytime someone wants to ignore the consitution to ban something they don't like they whip out that quote but the simple fact of the matter is that the quote doesn't change the written constitution one iota.

Are you advocating the overthrow of constitutional principle because we don't, in your opinion, have a moral and religous people?

Have you ever considered that it was the government failing to live up to their constitutional duties, and the people failing to hold them to those duties, that lead to the spread of immorality in our nation?
