A couple of comments though--
Thanks for the more detailed "adult" response. You've chosen option #2, which was my option for the founders as well, though mine has a materialist inflection. E.g., can't follow the Pieta analogy here, since that was literally set in stone to remain as it was. The constitution is more like piece of Beuys performance art which the community participates in making and judging. And I differ in that I do think the "flaws" of some do taint their accomplishment. That's why extra amendments and a civil war were required, among other things.
#2 was also my option for Mohammad, a man shaped by his time as inexorably as we are shaped by ours.
I'll go back and reread #2, but my initial impression was that it did not wholly represent my position. Thank you for your response as well.
