What in the nature of mankind caused America’s Founders to carefully define, separate, and limit powers in the Constitution?
Our Founders had experienced a great many things both from within our Country and abroad. This included historical and present day issues for them. They saw too easily how fast government can become corrupted, and mankind influenced by sin. So they spent a lot of time constructing a Constitution that is nearly perfect with checks and balances. The Second Amendment being the most important and powerful deterrent to any unpleasant scenarios.
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.
God, Constitution, Supreme Court, Voters, Congress.
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
None, except an actual case where the mothers life would likely end, which is extremely rare, to the point its barely worth mentioning. Not a fake case where its just for convenience. An ectopic pregnancy for instance, where a zygote has just attached to a wrong place and will not be a viable pregnancy anyways. I stand firm on the defense of all life.
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I am a strong Christian Catholic. I went to Catholic school my whole life, and have a very strong understanding of my duty as a Christian.
Considering all issues (social, economic, national security, etc.), which of these best describes you?
Very Conservative
Please defend your answer to the previous question by referencing your publicly available track record.
The News Called me part of the "Trump effect" and a "gun right activist," I guess referring to me being a member of the Virginia Citizens Defense League.
