Natural law and originalism
From Conservapedia
Natural law and originalism are two different types of legal philosophy, emphasizing different issues.
As Professor Brian T. Fitzpatrick wrote in a Fordham Law Review article:
| “ | Judge O’Scannlain’s understanding [is] that those who wrote and ratified the U.S. Constitution were believers in natural law — by that, I mean they were believers in a body of rules that could be derived by reason, that existed outside the rules enacted by a sovereign government.[1] | ” |
