Our Constitution is a covenant running from the first generation of Americans to us and then to future generations. It is a coherent succession. Each generation must learn anew that the Constitution's written terms embody ideas and aspirations that must survive more ages than one. PLANNED PARENTHOOD OF SOUTHEASTERN PA. v. CASEY, 505 U.S. 833 (1992). Covenant is a religious concept, originating in the ancient Near Eastern religions. Covenant is also a critical component of Christianity. Indeed, the very salvation offered through Jesus Christ is called the New Covenant. See, e.g., Luke 22:20. From Christianity, the idea of covenant was adopted by the American Founding Fathers: 'Viewing the United States Constitution as the critical expression of the American constitutional tradition, we move back in time, seeking the less differentiated, more embryonic expression of what is in that document.

| 5. | Judicial Activism | ||
|
A generally pejorative term used to describe the practice by which judges (typically high ranking judges, e.g. the United States Supreme Court) set groundbreaking precedents via excessively (from the perspective of those using the term) loose interpretations of the law. Such interpretations are most often thought to be politically motivated. Made possible by the legal doctrine of stare decisis, wherein judges are compelled by tradition to mirror rulings from similar past cases. Roe v. Wade, in which the United States Supreme Court ruled that abortion could not be banned due to an implicit "right to privacy" in the Constitution, is the quintessential example of "judicial activism."
