The Bible vs. The Constitution

The bible is frequently used to justify discrimination against Gays & Lesbians which brings-up three important points that I’d like to make about the bible vs the Constitution:

1. If you’re going to use the bible as the rulebook for life then it MUST taken in its entirety. You do NOT have the choice to “cherry pick” what you want to enforce and what you want to ignore. The bible is your law or it isn’t.
   
   
2. The Constitution is a living document that evolves to guarantee rights and freedoms to the people who are governed by it. The bible is a static/dead document that was written, literally, millenniums ago and has NEVER evolved. The only changes that have been made were introduced due to translational activities.
   
   
3. This country is made-up of a great many people -- people who don’t recognize the religions which inflict their bible upon them as law. Many, myself included, look at the bible as nothing more than a story book that was written long, long ago to convey morals during ancient times.

In short, believe in the bible if you want to, but don’t force others to follow your book. And don’t even think of using that book to create laws to inflict your religious views on others.
