This guy must have never met Moses, Rahab, Ehud, David, St. Peter, Oliver Cromwell, Roger Williams, Samuel Adams, Patrick Henry, Thomas Jefferson, or Rosa Parks, just to name a few....

The entire premise, however, is bogus in this day and age. We all know the law is what a judge says it is, not what the legislature puts down on paper.

I need respect no law that decrees an innocent person must be starved to death, nor any court ruling that such a law is just or proper. There are some cases in which conscience and morality must trump the law.

"We all know the law is what a judge says it is, not what the legislature puts down on paper."

So true. we need to get the judicial system back under control and have them enforce law as it was intended, not making up new law by changing the origional intent of it.

I think Jesus hd a few choice words for those who relied on the letter of the law.I seem to recall something about him rebuking pharisees and the teachers of the law
"These people honor me with their lips,butheir hearts are far from me.They worship me in vain: their teachings are but rules taught by men.
You have let go of the commands of GOD and are hholding on to the traditions of men."
Mark 7:6
