“Twitch is the world’s leading video platform and community for gamers,” where Ravendesk Games hosted an epic roleplaying session Sunday during which a friend rolled a critical, and likewise shared the following a week ago.
“‘All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.’
#14thAmendment, ratified 150 years ago today. The biggest step America has ever taken towards a more perfect union. Sweeping protections for individual rights so broad and all-encompassing, that we’re still working through the implications and struggling to live up to its promises a century and a half later. And every time we need it, as we often do, we have it right there in black and white: "any person" means all of us, without exception, even in ways beyond the wildest imaginations of its authors in 1868. Because in his genius, John Bingham didn’t give us an exhaustive list of particulars... he gave us a set of rock-solid foundational principles, ready and eager to be applied to new contexts and new persons.
The Declaration of Independence talked of universal, inalienable rights, but it was the Fourteenth Amendment that made individual rights the supreme law of the land, and that’s something worth celebrating every bit as much as the day we just marked with fireworks and parades.”
“looking to Jesus, the founder, and perfecter of our faith,
who for the joy that was set before he endured the cross,
despising the shame, (Hebrews 12:2)
and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.”
