Justice Clarence of the U.S. Supreme Court is known as an icon of constitutional expertise.

He interprets the Constitution, in questions before the court, on what the law meant when it was written, not what someone "feels" like it should mean now. His Constitution does not conform to social or political ideologies.

And to that end he recently addressed progressivism.

In a speech in Austin, Texas, this week, he took just 30 seconds to destroy the political agenda.

He said, "Progressivism seeks to replace the basic premises of the Declaration of Independence, and hence our form of government. It holds that our rights and our dignities come not from God but from government. It requires of the people a subservience and weakness incompatible with the Constitution premise on the transcendent origin of our rights."

The Declaration of Independent, of course, confirms that people are "endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights." That concept was so important to the Founders they placed it in the document's second paragraph.

Then it specified those include "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."

Social media commented, "Thomas is being praised nationwide for dropping this TRUTH on leftism and 'progressivism.'"

"You NAILED IT, Justice Thomas! This guy is the true GOAT."

Justice Thomas and Rush were cut from the same cloth. It shows at every turn.

Imagine how much farther we may have fallen as a nation if Clarence Thomas had not been sitting on the Supreme Court.

“It requires of the people a subservience and weakness incompatible with the Constitution premise on the transcendent origin of our rights”

Sums up the entire American ideal.

and my takeaway is we didn’t go a good job of teaching the next generation. We have work to do. But to teach our history we need to know our history.

Don’t let the net tell the stories

Tell the Coming Generation

Psa 78:1 A psalm of Asaph. O my people, listen to my instructions. Open your ears to what I am saying,
Psa 78:2 for I will speak to you in a parable. I will teach you hidden lessons from our past—
Psa 78:3 stories we have heard and known, stories our ancestors handed down to us.
Psa 78:4 We will not hide these truths from our children; we will tell the next generation about the glorious deeds of the LORD, about His power and His mighty wonders.

read it in context
