...The Bill of Rights and Constitution are not laws per se', they are a declaration of rights endowed upon mankind by Almighty God. They are not subject to denial by other men, only men can decide to surrender them, which in itself is an affront.
People believe a lot of things that aren't true in real life, and the fact that they believe such things doesn't change reality. Reality is what actually goes on in the real world, not the private world that exists only in one's head.

Simply put, that sort of metaphysical "understanding" of the Constitution and Bill of Rights has no bearing on, nor does it reflect, what goes on from day-to-day in real life in the real world. Believe what you want, but the world is still going to be going on about its business without regard to what you believe.
