It's Constitution Day!!
So if its Constitution Day then how are we to honor it? One way is to keep politicians from destroying it. One example of the constitution being ignored is how much it is mentioned in the news today. They don't really want to be cause of all the "unconstitutional" takeovers happening now. What a shame.
I have a hard time thinking this country is capable of honoring it any more. The question I hear most is "will a politician do or know to do what is right for America." I think to be more accurate we should ask, "Does he know the Constitution and will he govern by it?"
Just as Ron Paul had sadly stated, "There is plenty of unconstitutionality for everyone."
So, IF we were to honor the day maybe we would venture into the history of it and discover interesting facts.
Maybe we may want to read it to jog our memories or read it for the first time.
How about finding out the significance of "In God We Trust"?
You could even test your knowledge of the Constitution here.
Check out the debates about the Constitution here.
Maybe start monitoring what is happening now at the Supreme Court level.
Read the newspapers of that time, Federalist Papers or the Anti-Federalist Papers.
Find a blog about the Early Christian life in America.
Maybe join the "Constitution Party"?
Compare us with China's constitution.
Or just start getting it touch with our Congress and see what is happening in our nation's capital.
What ever we do, let us give thanks to God for this nation and for what it once stood for, Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. Oh, wait thats not in the Constitution, is it?Defend your freedoms, no one else will!
Enjoy the day!
Have a great Constitutional day!
and May God Bless you and yours.
