  1. Really dangerous to confirm someone who does not take into consideration mores all over the world at the time when the constitution was written, attempting to attach the mores of today on that constitution. I believe her approach would be to ignore the constitution. The constitution is being added to all the time through court cases and precedents. Certainly the writers of the constitution did not have the knowledge of future science (E=MC Squared vs a god, for example); however, they did not define "god," so the constitution under god could be thought of as under any individual interpretation of god (the goodness of religion). I personally believe in the right to practice one's own religion with caveats. Freedom of religion should not absolve abuses carried out under religion (demeaning, separating and discriminating against women, for example). Free religion and the creation of the world in six days should not take precedence over the creation of the universe over 14 billion years, and frankly the believe in a six-day creation is counterproductive. Religion too must evolve.
