Further, as Beck said, it was “God's finger” that wrote the Constitution. How does that say it is scripture?

When one refers to a blessing of some kind and we say that was the “hand of God”, what does that mean to you?

If the Constitution was scripture, it would be perfect right?

How about the Bill of Right? Does that mean God isn't perfect in his word? No, it means that God inspired men to do his will. Even the Founders can attest to that great truth.

I think Patrick Henry said it pretty succinctly.

“It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great Nation was founded not by religionists, but by Christians; not on religions, but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ. For that reason alone, people of other faiths have been afforded freedom of worship here.” - Patrick Henry

Is Patrick Henry saying the founding documents are scripture? Of course not, but he is saying our country is built on the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Ripliancum,

You are being disingenious and you know it. All of the quotes I cited came from an official Mormon source. They are trying to establish that the founding documents were inspired in a supernatural way.
