But it makes no sense. Modern man's been around for only 40,000 years. Let's say apes have been around for 1 million years. Before us dinosaurs ruled for millions of years. And for millions of years before dinosaurs trilobites. Now our earth formed a few billion years ago. We formed from stars that burned out billions of years before our sun was even born.Absolutists make me laugh. Let me guess, you think the world was literally created in six days.How the Supreme Court has interpreted the document has probably more to do with how we move about the Constitution. Each Party, actually each citizen is free to express to the court their concerns on how the document should be interpreted to protect their own varied interests. That's what makes the document so dynamic and interesting.
Charming for sure, but 100% inaccurate (not to mention slightly desperate at your desire to avoid having to admit you can't provide even a single instance of conservatives "moving right" of the U.S. Constitution). First of all, it is illegal to "interpret" the document. The U.S. Constitution is the law (and the highest law in the land as established by the Supremacy Clause). A law which is "open to interpretation" is a law that cannot be adhered to. The speed limit in your neighborhood is the law. If you interpret 25mph to mean "anything up to 40mph" while an officer interprets it to mean "anything above 24mph" - you'll never be able to be compliant with that speed limit. Especially if yet another officer on that department interprets the speed limit a third way (say...impermissible to be at even 24mph or 26mph).
The U.S. Constitution is not "dynamic" (another silly liberal talking point). It is set in stone, says exactly what it says, and stays that way until such time as it is amended. At which time, that new version becomes the new law set in stone.
God's days and our days are not the same---------------"In the beginning God created heaven and earth". Our days are measured by the time it takes our planet to make one revolution on its axis. God's days are not measured by anything we can comprehend.
What this tells me is we weren't intended or planned by a God who made this for us. If so what were dinosaurs and trilobites for? What was the purpose? We just happen to be top of the food chain and smart enough to wonder. But that makes us superstitious.
Time would be different for a God who lives forever true but that's not the point. The point is if you see what new comers we are its obvious the universe did fine before us and will be OK after were gone.
What's the purpose? None
