God Is Above The Law According To The Constitution

Those who composed the Constitution believed God was above the Constitution too. It's no accident that those who want to change the Constitution (by reinterpreting it out of existence) don't believe in God, and that our rights come from God. John Adams wrote that the model for the American type of republican democracy, and the model for individual freedom was neither ancient Greece nor Rome but ancient Israel and the Jews. James Madison took 2 years off to master Hebrew in order to read the Bible in the original. Their most quoted source text was the 5th book of Moses, Deuteronomy. That book was a speech delivered by Moses 40 years after the Exodus as the Jews prepared to enter the Promised Land to exercise the new freedom they'd left Egyptian slavery behind for.The founders of this blessed nation identified with the Jews of old. This is the root of what we call the "Judeo-Christian" tradition. In the Declaration of Independence Thomas Jefferson said that we draw our rights from God and not from men. (By the way, in Ancient Rome there were 20 slaves to one free man. In Ancient Israel there was the inverse ratio of 20 free men to one slave.) A culture that justifies the slaughter of the unborn with the trite catch words of "freedom of choice" indeed rejects God, and His prohibition against murder. Your remarks show that you know God's law is against infanticide. Therefore you want to abolish God's law for laws of human convenience. If inconvenient to bear the child then throw its life away. This country wasn't built on such a barbaric assumption that a woman's body is identical with her unborn child's body. We also have laws against self-mutilation, so if the baby is part of her body, by destroying part of her body she damages herself as well. If you ever saw what actually happens during an abortion you wouldn't advocate it for the "benefit" of yourself or others. There is nothing "archaic" about the prohibition of infanticide, though that prohibition is as old as the hills. Animals won't even abort themselves. It takes a human being's "reason" to excuse and even justify an act as cruel and self-destructive as this.
