Americans ought to ask why the Biden Administration is moving to amend International Health Regulations (IHR) to give global unaccountable bureaucrats authority to license the Center for Disease Control to justify detaining American citizens?

Article VI
Separation Of State…from Church.
Let me be clear. My towns middle school does not do all that bad a job covering the US constitution. I can say this mostly because they actually cover it for a few weeks, during an exploration of American history and the founding of the nation. But being either a victim of or party to the kinds of support materials embedded into the public education system, I still manage to find a few ringers that make me shake my head and smile.
Not too long ago I regaled you on these pages with the tale of just such a ringer on the Middle Schools ‘citizenship quiz,’ where it asked the question, where does free speech come from? The correct answer is of course, ‘our creator,’ who provided us with a set of unalienable rights that exist even in the vacuum of the necessary evil of government. But that’s not the answer they were looking for. They expect you to write ‘The 1st amendment.’ This is of course incorrect. It assumes people could not speak freely prior 1791 when the bill of rights was ratified which is why I am forever reminding my children that the US Constitution does not give rights, it protects them.
Which brings me to this newly discovered Gem. Yesterday I came across a series of poorly worded essay questions—my second sons homework–the worst of which was this; What part of Article VI of the US constitution supports the idea of separation of church and state? Explain. (Go ahead and roll your eyes or make a grunting noise, or whatever it is you do when confronted with such nonsense.)
