A “living” document?! Imagine signing a “living” document contract. Means anything that the other party says it means as time goes on. Sounds more like a dead document.

"Living Document"....kiinda goes hand-in-hand with their thoughts on morality....that is...there really is no right or wrong...it is just a matter of perception....

Honestly...it really has to be very confusing living in a reality were there is nothing concrete...where foundations and principals are fleeting and ever changing....

Thank the good Lord my Dad was a conservative....I may be saddened by what I see today....but at least I can figure out why....

Whenever a lib brings up the “living document” argument,

I demand they play poker with me with “living” rules,
and I will be the one determining when a rule needs to change to reflect the present situation.

Or, I’ll ask them when the last time they signed a “living” contract, say a mortgage, where the bank can change the terms at any time to suit their needs.

And, indeed, that’s what the Constitution IS. It’s a contract between the sovereign states and the created entity of the general government.
