THE TRUTH ABOUT THE U.S. CONSTITUTION

The U.S. Constitution says a few things quite differently than the current usage indicates:

1. Federal powers.
   • Amendments 9 and 10 are the "Nothing else" amendments.
   • They ban the federal government from activities not constitutionally given to it.
   • This includes price and wage controls, subsidies, and other economic policy.
2. Welfare:
   • There is no provision in the Constitution for federal poor relief.
   • Amendments 9 and 10 prohibit federal programs not provided for in the Constitution.
   • They found the phrase "provide for the common defense and general welfare."
   • They redefined "general welfare" to include poor relief.
   • That's why they call it "welfare"--a prime case of amphiboly.
3. Social Security:
   • There is no provision in the Constitution for federal retirement program.
   • As a savings program, like savings bonds, it did not violate the Constitution.
   • Now that it is a federal spending program, it violates Amendments 9 and 10.
   • It also now violates the clause that requires appropriations for all payments.
   • Use of nationwide identification numbers is forbidden to Christians (Rev. 13-14).
   • Using the Social Security number for identification violates Amendment 1.
   • Prophesy says when mandatory ID numbers appear, the world is about to end.
4. Separation of church and state.
   • The phrase appears nowhere in the Constitution.
   • The phrase does appear in the Communist Manifesto.
   • Amendment 1 language limits government activity, not religious activity.
   • An "establishment of religion" (in 18th century English) is a church.
   • The establishment clause actually means that government may not make laws about churches.
   • Its inclusion in our judicial law is another Atheist attempt to stop religion.
   • The school prayer problem is caused by government-run schools.
   • There is no provision in the Constitution for public schools.
   • The Supreme Court should have ruled to remove government from schools.
   • Schools promote Atheism by removing all religious references from texts.
   • Social studies classes teach political correctness, a form of Humanism.
   • Not all religion has been kept out of school, just organized and traditional religions.
5. The right to keep and bear arms.
   • The founders feared an organized army because they had been oppressed by one.
   • They realized that a militia was a necessary evil to prevent invasion.
   • They feared a military takeover or other military oppression.
   • They gave the people the right to defend themselves from the militia.
   • Adolf Hitler was able to take over by first taking guns from the people.
   • The militia originally was also the police force.
   • Does this give people the right to defend themselves from the police?
   • IF so:
     1. If the police are in the wrong, many people will band together against them.
     2. If the police are right, the people will help them arrest the criminal.
   • What we need is a weapon that removes bureaucrats.
6. Sexual preference.
   • Amendment 1 prohibits interference with free exercise of religion.
   • The Holy Bible, the Koran, and the Torah all condemn homosexuality.
   • Only three religions do not condemn homosexuality as wrongdoing.
   • Lev 18:22; 20:13; Deut 22:5; and Romans 1:21-32 show how serious the problem is.
   • Gen 19:1-29 emphasizes the trouble caused by homosexuality.
   • According to Acts 1:25-27, homosexuality is caused by worshiping created things.
   • The "science" that said that homosexuality is hereditary was shown to be bad science.
   • There is no such thing as "a homosexual." Homosexuality is a behavior, not a trait.
   • Eph 5:8-14 tells why Christians are to avoid homosexual offenders.
   • The fact that unbelievers don't understand reasons for these verses is irrelevant.
   • The fact that some people do believe these verses invokes Amendment 1.
   • Any law prohibiting discrimination against "homosexuals" violates Amendment 1.
   • Religious freedom and freedom of sexual preference are mutually exclusive.
7. Elections.
   • Elections are required to elect government officials.
   • The Constitution does not specify the type of election.
   • The Plurality Voting System was chosen because people did not know how much bias it introduces into elections.
   • Now that the bias is known, the Plurality Voting System should be abolished.
   • Plurality voting has not been abolished because politicians can use it to cheat.
   • The only fully fair voting system is the Independent Voting System. It should be adopted.
   • All other election systems have biases in them.
   • Ranking systems produce strange results, by not discerning where voters stop liking candidates and start disliking them
8. Election of the Vice President.
   • Originally, the Vice President was to be the runner-up in the Presidential election.
   • The political parties did something unexpected: They ran two candidates.
   • In the Electoral College, one elector was chosen to vote for the wrong VP.
   • This was necessary so the two candidates in the same party didn't tie.
   • One year they forgot. The tie threw the election to the House of Representatives.
   • The other party had the House, and toyed with making the V.P. candidate the President.
   • The result was Amendment 12, which separated the offices in the Electoral College.
   • It might have been better if the President and the V.P. were from different parties.
9. Search and seizure.
   • Amendment 4 requires a search warrant.
   • That is that. There should be no judicially created exceptions.
   • Amendment 5 prohibits taking property for public use without just compensation.
   • Police taking of property when arresting suspects for crimes is unconstitutional.
   • If police destroy property, it is taking without due process.
   • The military could be accused of taking property by destroying it in war.
10. Loss of rights due to anonymity of reporters of child abuse and drug offenses.
    • Amendment 6 gives the accused the right to be confronted with witnesses against him.
    • Currently, witness identities are hidden while agencies investigate.
    • Welfare and drug agencies can even investigate based on anonymous phone tips.
    • Welfare agencies have the power to take away children based only on accusations.
    • Police and drug enforcement agencies can seize property on suspicion of dealing.
    • Thus, welfare and drug agencies unconstitutionally assess penalties before they investigate.
    • Amendment 6 gives the accused the right to compel witnesses to testify.
    • If the identity of the witness is unknown, how can the accused compel testimony?
11. Chain Gangs.
    • Amendment 15 has an exception to the slavery ban for punishment of a crime.
    • Forced labor was not originally considered "cruel and unusual punishment."
    • Some judges and legislators seem to think work is cruel!
    • Chain gangs are constitutional.
