I don’t know how profitable it is to continue this debate, but here goes…
A document is nothing more than a set of rules/laws by which a group of people have decided to be governed or by which a superior has informed inferiors what they must do and not do. A document has no power by which to discipline transgressors, and it is the group or the superior which must do so. To take a current example, there are certain men in the PCA who are speaking and living out of accord with the governing documents of the denomination. But it is men, not the governing documents, who must bring discipline, and when they do not, it is they, and not the governing documents, who are abdicating authority.
Yes, strictly speaking you are correct, and I was not unaware of that fact. My point is that the federal and state legislatures are elected by the people, and if the people want to amend the Constitution, they can elect legislators who will do so.
