Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution

Monrovians - Unite!  Know and defend our Constitution.  What do you think it means?  Your comments are welcome.  One resource is the Center for Constitutional Studies.


Amendment X

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

Ratified effective December 15, 1791.

Here is a Constitutional Reading List, with all materials free to you.

Right and Duty to Bear Firearms

Monrovians - Unite!  Know your Constitutional Rights, and the duties that they impose on us.

"The right of having and using arms for self-preservation and defense is justly called the primary law of nature, so it is not, neither can it be in fact, taken away by the law of society."

Blackstone, Commentaries on the Laws of England.

The Blackstone Institute honors Sir William Blackstone (1723-1780). Blackstone was the great Eighteenth Century English legal scholar whose philosophy and writings were infused with Judeo-Christian principles. The Ten Commandments are at the heart of Blackstone's philosophy.  Blackstone taught that man is created by God and granted fundamental rights by God. Man’s law must be based on God’s law. Our Founding Fathers referred to Blackstone more than to any other English or American authority. Blackstone’s great work, Commentaries on the Laws of England, was basic to the U.S. Constitution. This work has sold more copies in America than in England and was a basic textbook of America’s early lawyers. It was only in the mid-Twentieth Century that American law, being re-written by the U.S. Supreme Court, repudiated Blackstone. An attack on Blackstone is an attack on the U.S. Constitution and our nation’s Judeo-Christian foundations.

Kicks on Route 66 - Transforming Seminarian blog

Monrovians - Unite!

Transformingseminarian.blogspot.com is a blog by Mark Baker-Wright, who was an Assistant to the Faculty and Dean's Office at Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, California (the views expressed on that blog do not necessarily represent the views of the seminary).  Mark received his Master of Divinity degree several years ago.

His wife, Michelle, also an MDiv graduate, is a professionally trained flutist and aspiring theologian, working on a PhD in Worship and Culture.

After posting for ten years (10 years!) on the blog, Mark decided to stop. He learned a lot about blogging, especially comments, and about social media, which he shares in his last post after ten years of blogging.

Check out Mark's post about the reasons he stopped blogging here.
