The Founders' ideas as expressed in the Constitution and Bill of Rights are NOT outdated. The Founders' ideas as generally expressed in many other documents of their time find less direct application to our situation.

An all-powerful central government IS to be feared, but not always for the reasons I'm suspecting you might put at the top of the list. I'm upset about some of the trends and directions our government has taken, but not because of the concerns you expressed earlier about "politically correctness."
