This is the main line of thinking that is actively destroying our country, our republic but maybe more importantly the main course of human development since the enlightenment.

This idea of relativism, that our leaders are the wisest among us and that they have our best intentions at heart. They have the training and education to know what is best for us and if they decided to alter or change the principles upon which government is founded then it is the best for all of us.

I say the Declaration of Independence said it best,

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

This means there are principles to our form of government, they are unalienable, that means government cannot confer them or altar them in any way. As unpleasant as it may sound to statists, there are fundamental principles which cannot be changed or altered to suit the opinion of those in charge of defending those rights for the rest of us.

The collegiate universities that have taught this crap (constitutional relativism) for decades have done the greatest dis-service to this country.
