"Endowed by the Creator" probably upsets you too. One, an amendment to the constitution can't be unconstitutional by definition. Two, a religious motivation even for a bill in congress isn't unconstitutional unless it contains language establishing a state religion.
Bumping your post on adding Amendments. However, although I would agree with the ideas of these Amendments - I’m not sure I want us changing the Constitution on everything that comes up. Plus - I think it would be practically impossible to do - at least with the abortion issue.
Heres a quote from Huck back in 2001:
“I’m pro life, but I know not everyone agrees with me on that particular topic, and I respect that. I’ll probably never change my conviction on that, and some of you won’t change yours. But in this day in which we talk about choice and the importance of it, surely we can agree that if under the Supreme Court choice is mandated, that choice should be as educated a choice as is humanly possible”.

For someone that now wants to change the Constitution - that statement just doesn’t seem to have the zeal that it should have.
I made my comments in haste and thanks to those who've pointed it out to me realize that my words were very poorly chosen, not well-expressed at all.
Indeed, any proposal that passes the amendment process would be deemed constitutional. I apologize for my rather ignorant and, yes, dumb, DUMB, d-u-m-b, comments.
Thank you all.
