I
found an article titled "Maybe We Should Stop Letting Crazy
People Interpret the Bible and the Constitution". The
article is more about people who pick and choose what they want out
of both documents to justify their actions.
I love to read the story of the Nativity from the King James version
of the Bible, it's beautifully written, even though it doesn't make a
lot of historical and logical sense, but that's where faith comes in
I guess. However, the King James version of the Bible is not the word
of God, it is an interpretation and translation made for a King in
England many centuries after the Birth of Christ. If you want to know
the true word of God in the original form, you'll need to learn
Greek, Latin and probably some other ancient languages to go to the
original forms of the Bible, all else has been men's interpretations
and inexact translations of those words, a reflection of the times
and prejudices that the writer was living. The Constitution was
written over 2 centuries ago, the world was a very different place,
things have occurred that were not even dreamed of then, there has
been changes in technology that could not have been imagined. So if
you want to use the Bible and the Constitution, how about using all
of them, not just a few words.
