Read the following quote from John Adams:
"We have no government armed in power capable of contending with human passions unbridled [uncontrolled] by morality and religion. Our Constitution was made only for a religious and moral people. It is wholly inadequate for the government of any other."

@ILovePuppiesLol  The Constitution is a flexible document that should change as the country changes. Unfortunately not all of the Constitutional changes have been for the better.

It has not changed.....

they have not changed the constitution

ilovepuppieslol · Answer

well amendments have been added but that is not what the quote is saying

kendricklamar2014 · Answer

States were also given a chance to propose changes, or amendments. Three-fourths of the states have to approve the amendment for it to become law. In the past 200 years, the Constitution has been amended 27 times. The 13th Amendment, in 1865, forever banned the practice of slavery.
