I don't buy the premise of that article. Folks who advocate for the strict interpretation of our Constitution miss the genius of our Constitutional Founders. It's the same mistake made by folks who believe the Bible is 100% fact. Think about it. If we stuck to the strict edicts of the Bible, then there would be no women's rights in the US. Look, the genius of our Founders was to create a document that could serve as a guidebook. They even gave us provisions for expanding that guidebook, so that it would be a living document. Thus, amendments to the Constitution are allowable. Any society that becomes rigidly locked into one strict way of doing things is destined to obsolescence. This country is great, precisely because we are adaptable and we change faster than other culture and we take the strengths of immigrants and make them our own. We should be embracing cultural change, not fighting against it. We can't allow our country to be ossified.
