That is a highly exteme situation. People have an obligation to protect their neighbors from immediate danger to their lives. Roberts does not have the obligation or even an entitlement to be Chief Justice. Lying is an unacceptable method of getting there - period.
Article Six of the U.S. Constitution specifically states that, '...no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust'".
So the Democrats have created a scenario where the constitution is being violated, and Roberts has to play into their hands?
