I think the writers of the constitution did give us a living document. They gave us a way to amend it when/if it becomes outdated. I believe they thought that it would have to be amended from time to time to take into consideration contemporary concepts. Stretching their original intent should not be necessary and could be rather dangerous. Jurists should interpret the law, not make it.
