Could it be said that Americans have replaced God with the US Constitution?

Well, this American sees no divinity in politics. Or churches, for that matter.

I DO see people who fervently invoke the Constitution as long as it supports their goals. If it doesn’t they ignore it, deny it or try to alter it.

That is not love.

@Mamapolo2016 To my mind, politics and religious faith of any kind should never meet. Religion is the belief in a form of afterlife. A reward we may go to after this life.. Politics is the art or science we subject ourselves to when dealing with the problems we face in this life, up to the moment we die. Now its fine to have whatever faith you wish here. Just dont allow it to overflow into the rule or expectations you have as to how others may act here.😷
