Patriotism-a quasi-religious ideology

      The fundamental law of life on earth-including human society-is CHANGE, evolution, development.All things come into existence and pass out of existence. Even the national state is an artificial human creation. Nothing sacrosanct about it -except when it declares WAR.
Why treat any paper document-no matter how venerable-as a piece of absolute wisdom valid for all times ? Here patriotism becomes a quasi-religious ideology. But I still prefer the monotheism of the Jews-which they tend to forget in their worship of Israel.
