Just as many on the left are embarrassed by the antics of nuts like Ward Churchill, so too have we on the right our own nutcases. We can defend them all we want, but the likes of Cynthia Tucker and others will happily shine a light on them.
It's also taking the Lord's name in vain.
Terri's rights to life, liberty and the right to equal representation in court were denied her.
It has nothing to do with religion or extremists. It has to do with the left running this country without ever winning elections.
Would you care to explain to me why sodomy is a "federal issue" and a womans "right to life" is not?
Yes, it's a good term and it gave me a lead-in to do a little Cindy-bashing. She is so deserving you know!
O, ye cats and little kittens! Anyone who can read can read the Constitution. So what? It's like someone boasting their 3 year old can read the WSJ. That doesn't mean child understands the text.
The key is understanding the Constitution; not only its meaning, but the intentions,goals,ideals,hopes, and fears of those who created it.
Oh, of course not. That's why you take the name of God Himself and turn it into an epithet with which to taunt and diminish others.
That's not only blasphemous according to the religious tradition you profess, rather sketchily, to belong to, but it is also contemptuous and hateful.
I am a good conservative who is tired of being beaten over the head by "Christians."
Being a conservative has nothing to do with approving the forcible starvation of a helpless innocent.
If conservatism countenances such behavior then it is time for conservatives to ask themselves why they have aligned themselves with evil leftists.
If it means someone who believes in Christ, then I am proud to be a Christer.
Based on what the late pope advocated, and what I've seen Catholics on FR advocate, I know Catholics are Pro-Life and anti-euthanasia, or in other words, anti-murder.
Not sure what Baptists have to do with anything.
So, is it just Baptists you would bar from the public square....or are there other people of faith who you feel shouldn't participate in the dialog of the "R" party?
The title of the thread is about religious extremists seeking activist judges.
After nearly three week of TS threads, I have to agree. The rule of law be damned. We want it our way or the highway.
Oh, I see.
I agree. there is less "discussion" and much more hysteria, name calling.
Absolutely - I presumed that annyokie was an atheist when she used such a hateful blasphemy, so I assumed that it was pointless to mention that it was an egregious violation of the second commandment.
Imagine my surprise when she later claimed to be a Christian.
I don't want to bar anyone, except the Taliban of any order. We are a nation of laws, not a theocracy.

As long as you let yourself fear liberals and their blustering, you will remain defeated.
To say that Judge Moore handed Mr. Press his head on a silver platter would be an understatement. At every turn in the conversation Judge Moore was sighting facts and giving proofs. The best Mr. Press could offer was a sad attempt to blow of the Judges proofs with a haughty laugh.
