Morals change?

It was once immoral to assist in the "theft" of a slave
by aiding their escape. This was a felony in all
colonies at the time Adams wrote those words.

It's not immoral now. Now we expend billions of dollars
in time, equipment, and blood to teach this lesson
abroad, in lands 90% of the people of this country
never heard of and don't care about.

Yes, Virginia, morals change.

If "Bob" wants to bugger "Alice" or "Charlie", (or
"Alice", THEN "Charlie", all in the course of 10 minutes)
well, that's their business.

If the Founding Fathers didn't anticipate morality
changing, they would not have been so circumspect in their
language:

"Article XXIX:
Under no circumstances will a person cause to enter his
sex (or other object) into the anus of another person,
upon penalty as such that the States shall proscribe."

I don't remember reading that.

Is anyone else here a Strict Constructionist?
