My friend the Constitution does not tell us what our rights and freedoms
are but rather the Supreme Court. You are trying to interpret the
constitution literally and historicly. I wish this was the case. The
Bill of Rights only protect individuals from the Federal government not
the states. Further since the Civil war the "Incorporation doctrine" has
placed the Bill of Rights into the 14th Amendment. The 14th amendment
says right to have liberty. What does liberty mean Freedom? Free to
own land, free to marry.... Marry what anything? Right to marry same
sex or marry 5 women?? The Supreme court tells us what this Amendment
says. Currently our right is to marry the opposite sex or 1 woman. But
there is a current agenda of the homosexuals siad Scalia to push for
freedom to marry same sex but not 5 women. So then the Supreme Court is
was tells us what our rights are and it slides with the times.
