Tell me again why it is capitulation to reduce the size and scope of government.
For one simple reason, as the founders themselves were aware and stated, this form of government, a Democratic Republic, was only meant for a Christian people, and if this nation walks away from God, it will fall.

And yet they didn’t found a theocracy. The only morality legislated into the constitution was to value limited government. Nor did they encourage states to legislate morality, though they gave them the option. While you suppose that was oversight I believe it was becuase they knew that even more dangerous that immorality would be a powerful government.

IF?? Sadly we did that a long time ago in this country. Yes there are still Christians but most of the country has gone far from God.
