Right or wrong, the image that the "abortion must be banned at all cost" crowd projects is one in which a Taliban type government is installed to keep the people moral. In this government the bible is the supreme law of the land, not the constitution.

That makes no sense. The taliban doesn't use the Bible.

The Constitution was penned with the Bible as its base.

By our standards, the people that Saul was told to kill were innocent. The battle was over, the opposing army wiped out and the city unguarded - only women (some pregnant) and children were there.

Well if you are so sure of that, show me the proof. In a URL.

1 Samuel 15:2-3 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I remember that which Amalek did to Israel, how he laid wait for him in the way, when he came up from Egypt.

Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling

You realize that I said "Taliban type government" right? The fact that the Tabliban actually uses the Koran rather than the Bible is a difference without distinction. I will spell it out for you - people fear a theocracy. When people hear that any religious text is being used as a rationalization of a public policy, it scares them.

Do you believe that the Bible should have legislative power in the United States?
