Again, my point on this forum is that several want to pick and choose what should or should not have been modified.
I do not believe FREEDOM of Speech gave Bill or Rush either one the right to be slanderous. That is not what was intended by the authors in my opinion. In those days it was common to kill a man for slandering you or yours.
I do not believe the authors intended for every over zealous citizen to carry a machine gun in his coat when they talked about the right to bear arms.
I do; however, believe that 200 years ago women were not meant to ever have the right to vote, but we allow that today.
I am just asking that we all be reasonable and be open to change when needed.

Support you? ABSOLUTELY NOT...The Old Testament can not and never will be modified, nor did I imply that it was. As the WORD of GOD, it can never be changed or modified. Same goes for the New Testament. The New Testament was the FULLFILMENT of the Old Testament. The LAW of the Old Testament stands as the standard by which we will ALL be judged...The only way out, in order to stand perfect before our heavenly Father, is to be covered by the Blood of the Lamb, His Son, Jesus.
