I hate to be the one to tell you this, but it takes more than a majority to amend the Constitution.
And I see it is a waste of time to try to make you aware of the reality concerning interpreting the various things found and not found in our Constitution.

Peace and truth be yours
Two thirds vote in house and senate, then to states: two thirds of states approve. Or, two thirds states call for constitutional convention to approve.

I appreciate you are not willing to spend time to educate all the uninformed people out here.

peace to you

“Teaching them to observe all that I commended you”

peace to you
The pastors job is teacher and so is the parent... that is they’re responsibility. BTW, I don’t see the institution of SS Mandated anywhere in scripture .... could you point that out to me?

Paul tells us to do all things in an orderly manner.

If you look at the history of SS, you will find it started prior to public schools. Churches decided to use Sunday as a time to teach children and adults to read, so they could read their bibles.

Are you opposed to children and adults learning to read so they can read their bibles?

peace to you

We are not back in the 18 th centuries when people were dumb uneducated creatures.

SS was originally started for outreach

Let me help you with this, you appreciate I am unwilling to waste time trying to inform you. All my posts are intended to inform folks open to God's word.

They will know you are Christians by your defiance and activism.

Which is sometimes the loving thing to do.

Unlike you. "They will know you are Christians by your timidity." or "They will know you are Christians by your cowardliness." LOL!

Three quarters of states required to ratify any amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

Are you willing to die for that position... I mean, will you take a bullet for a mask?

EWF... They probably don't know what one is, just another Baptist among many... Oh well... Show me Sunday School in the New Testament Church?... An invention of men... This might be interesting... Brother Glen:)

When did Sunday Schools start?
I was raised to sit quietly and take in the words of the pastor ( what I could comprehend) then there came a time, usually at dinner, when we had frank discussions about the sermon and any other teaching... questions were encouraged. The parents involvement was critical to the learning process. And this was a Roman Catholic educational tradition! Trust me, I know RC doctrines, can still recite prayers, songs, scriptures supporting doctrine etc. With parents doing teaching and pastors and elders reinforcing and clarifying, I’ve seen a higher level of religious education than an hour a week SS class.

Ammo is too expensive. So I understand though, you are advocating civil disobedience?

Nice to hear you're a practical man.

My attitude is, I respect people's fears. If someone is concerned, and they believe a mask will work, I'll oblige. I don't wear one outdoors while distanced, and never will. I don't care who's bothered about that.

I also believe it's time to open the country, and limit money to only the vulnerable, so they can protect themselves until it's safe.

I have to say, very sensible. I wish the politicians were so sensible.

I will add that IMO people should always wear a mask when within 6 feet. Courtesy if nothing else, but I do think masks work...I see some at church with face shields, that's smarter.

Went into a Home Depot today without wearing one... honestly forgot to wear one and you know what, it was liberating. You gotta remember, I had to wear one for a solid month while confined inside a hospital with my bride. But this has got to stop somewhere, so I’m going to stop wearing these things unless told to.
