(How the Constitution and our three branches are being undermined)
I remember a clergyman named D James Kennedy the founder/ senior pastor of Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, from 1960 till his death in 2007.
He did a sermon on: “Ideas have Consequences”. He drew pictures of how Darwinism (Darwinian ‘survival of the fittest ideas: Jews weak – Germans strong etc.) contributed to men such as Hitler and Stalin advancing their ideas. It was not a pretty sight to envision on how ideas implemented can be brutal.
Looking at an excerpt of the Declaration of Independence: 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. We see a better way!
Looking to James Madison we find the reasons our Constitution established Three Separate Branches of Government: Executive, Legislative and Judicial.
James Madison The Federalist Papers Federalist No. 47 Categories: Separation of Powers Date: January 30, 1788: The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny. We see how to preserve freedom and liberty.
