Do Catholics Takes An Sola Scriptoria View of the U.S. Constitution

Blackadder has a good post at Vox Nova. See Sola Scriptura and the Constitution.

I like how he starts out with
"Conservatives who advocate originalism or textualism when in comes to interpreting the Constitution are sometimes accused of advocating a “sola scriptura” view of the Constitution. Since such charges are typically made by Catholics to Catholics, the allegation has a certain sting to it, as if holding a particular theory of constitutional interpretation someone made one a bad Catholic."

I give my feeble contribution in the comment section under "jh". It should be a good discussion on all sides in the comment section.
