But church involvement alone has not been enough to assuage Christian conservatives

What's it going to take? That she preach a sermon to the Judicial Committee?

It's important to remember that there are some 'christian' churches that sermonize in favor of legalized abortion and a number of other things the bible teaches is wrong. One of these (not everyone of them, but many) is the Episcopalian church.

That being said, I'm familiar with the type of church Valley View is. I can say, with nearly 100% certainty, that she is pro-life. It's unlikely the pastor of that church would've allowed a pro-choice sunday school teacher.

Good post. Let's see.....we are reasonably certain that she is:

a) pro-life
b) pro 2nd amendment
c) pro-business
d) pro-patriot act

This is more info than I have ever had on ANY justice to date. Yes, including Roberts. I wish everyone would STFU and let the hearings begin.

The problem is clearly, precisely, and accurately stated in the article, when someone makes the comment that they don't know if her political beliefs and her "faith" hook up. IMHO, if you genuinely have the Holy Spirit residing within your soul, it's virtually impossible NOT to take God's views into account when you vote. That said, there are those who claim EVANGELICAL Christianity and still support every evil plank in the Democrat party. If you don't believe that, take a quick read of Jimmy Carter's stance:

Jimmy Carter, America's first evangelical Christian president...

I think that view is horrendously misguided. For example, Carter, like most liberals, makes the leap across logic when he claims Republicans have no interest in helping the poor, and are therefore unChristian. Hard cold reality is that you do NOT help people by giving them perpetual handouts. You HURT them, you ruin their lives, and you rob others to do it. Liberals, however, virtually never have any interest in the reality of logic. Their lives are run by EMOTION.

Truth: We DON'T know that this nominee will hold conservative views, and there's history there to suggest she does not. I desperately hope to be wrong.
