This artist thinks so:

Ok, I had a bit of a concern that the artist was saying Jesus gave the world the U.S Constitution.  But, the artist only says the Constitution is God inspired (same is said of the Bible though).

This image fails to take into consideration the Articles of Confederation that preceded the Constitution.

Modern day Republicans would ascend far more to the powers of the states under the Articles of Confederation than they ever would to the Constitution which provided for the powers of the Federal government. 

People seem to want to believe that we went from the Declaration of Independence to the US Constitution, but there was the failed government under the Articles of Confederation in between. 

I wonder what Hamilton would think about those who argue for a weaker Federal government.
