I have shown NO contempt for the Constitution.

Sure you have. I cited Madison on First Amendment protection of licentiousness. Rather than dispute this, your response was to argue that the Constitution is wholly inadequate for governing the American people.

That gives a green light to government and its agents to walk right over the Constitution. Suppose the cops conduct an illegal search of your vehicle and rough you up in the process. The authorities can just use your argument and say "Sorry, but the Constitution is now wholly inadequate for governing. You're out of luck".

I quoted John Adams. "Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." John Adams

Answer my last post. See post 57 and tell me that those goals haven't been met. Try telling me that we are still a moral and religious nation. Women murder their babies before they are born. God is not allowed on public property or in the schools. Gays march with "pride". Sex has become the great American pastime. Even on FR, how many "I'd hit it" threads are there in one day? Go on. Tell me how moral and religious a country we are.

"Political interest [can] never be separated in the long run from moral right"

"Can the liberties of a nation be sure when we remove their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people, that these liberties are a gift from God? Thomas Jefferson
