Based on the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution, please arrange the following entities, starting with the highest source of authority, and continue the list in descending order of authority, skipping any that do not apply: Academia, Congress, Constitution, God, Industry, Media, Professional Sports, Supreme Court, Voters.

Voters, God, Media, Congress, Supreme court (I am sure some will argue the things I have listed but I teach a constitutional course and I can absolutely argue in favor of the powers and how they were designed to be applied.

18. Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

My beliefs are that of Christianity. I do however see a distinctive difference between authoritarian Christians and true Christians. I believe we are interfering in Gods plan when we pass laws to create safety nets to catch people, or prop them up. I can honestly say I have become the person I am today because I made bad choices in life and I was allowed to fail. At the end of the day it was God who intervened to rescue me. I know now why God allowed me to fail. It was to lift me up in the end, to teach me humility, to teach me grace, and to learn to love myself before I could ever begin to love others in my life. So many times mankind thinks they have a better design than God, but they truly don't. His is the greatest plan of all. It can not be changed by man made laws and we only delay the inevitable when we try.If you want to change the world, then lead by example.
