What Should A Constitution
Be.
Understanding the Foundation and Need For Constitutions.
History teaches Us, that in ancient times Cuneiform
writing was developed to keep a record of important information, that had
previously been the responsibility of Human Memory.
The "Urantia Book" teaches that, before written, or
recorded, history, writing was introduced to Humanity by Celestial Beings sent
by God, but that this process was interrupted by the "lucifer rebellion", about
five hundred thousand years ago.
Much could be speculated about the causes of the first
Cuneiform writing of Sumer. But it is enough for me to know that it was the
beginning of Human writing that eventually found its way from clay tablets to
velum and papyrus. From impressions, to the application of ink.
The first records to be inscribed, included agreements.
Contracts of mercantile and trade transactions and then agreements within the
processes of governance; decisions of law.
One of the intentions, of these records, was to maintain
Truth and accuracy of the information and another was to serve as a binding
reminder and source of information, of what was agreed.
City Building Humans tend to place "great store" on the
written word, while Peoples closer to Nature maintain the skills and practice
of the spoken word and memory work.
Constitutions are traditionally written documents of
agreement and commitment between Leaders and Followers, but it is plausible
that a constitution could be agreement and understanding of the relationships between
Many (majority) of a sovereign nation's "citizens", if they are their own
leaders.
This writing is only the opening action, by one person of
many. It is important that this first effort, to begin to develop and
establish, the necessity for an American Constitution, be responded to by as
many American Citizens as possible.
Here is a reasonable, (or so it seems to me) definition

Constitution, I would like to know as many opinions as possible, about this
definition. Is it acceptable to all who read this?
