Now you're dissembling. I've posted the same post to you several times discussing attempts by two of the authors of the 14th Amendment to Amend the Constitution applying the Establishment clause" to the states.

You asked for the cite in your typically wiseass mode and I shoved it right in your face.

Then you did a typical rolling 180 toward the anti Catholic bigot Blaine.

I have asked you the same question repeatedly and you're refuasl to answer it speaks volumes. But I will try one more time.

Why would two of the authors of the 14th Amendment support an addiitional amendment to the Constitution applying the "establishment clause" to the states if the 14th Amendment was meant to incorporate same?

The point of this exercise is to establish that Cantwell and Everson were judicial activism writ large. Just like Roe, Doe, Lawrence et al.

Which authors are you talking about? I've asked you that question, and you refer back to the same posts. And YOU brought up Blaine.

In case you didn't notice, YOUR post was about the Blaine Amendment? What I am asking you for is the one you claim Bingham and Howard wrote. Or are you saying that someone else wrote it? If so, who or when?

Of course, you only bring that up because you can't dispute that the ACTUAL authors of the 14th explicitly said incorporation would be its effect, and no one contested that.

Still waiting for your scholarly comment on the effects of the privileges and immunities clause, as well.

I'm sure I'll wait for a long time.
