In fact, it kinda did.
The whole constitution is based on natural law. Natural law is God's law. There are certain laws which govern the entire universe, and just as Thomas Jefferson said in the Declaration of Independence, there are laws which govern in the affairs of men which are "the laws of nature and of nature's God.
The true constitutionalist recognizes the military as the defense of these United states under evident enough circumstances, not a military of foreign interests.

I do not agree with the you view of the Constitution on Marriage, Religion, and Torture.
Good effort, though

Nonsense!
There is no such thing as natural law...
its a conceit that some people use when they don't want anyone to argue with them about it.

Sorry man but I have every right and freedom that allows me to believe that the US military could in fact be a force fighting for foreign interests.
Especially if there is any truth to that statement.
So as a constitutionalist maybe one can understand that sometimes the Federal military is not enough, but perhaps that is why every man, woman, and child who are citizens of this Country are also recognized by the constitution as members of the people's militia.

The founders meaning of seperation of religion and states ONLY APPLIED to the Federal government. The states can go into religion, but they need to treat religions as equals.
Yep. According to the founders, the national religious holidays are unconstitutional.
Yep and the right to bear arms comes from NATURAL LAW, meaning that no legislation can stop you from having the means to defend yourself as it is in nature.
A true constitutionalist supports a FREE MARKET.
