"There will forver be times when the government, in it's obligation to serve ALL citizens equally, must hold the basic moral ethics of judeo-christian theology at arms length."

Your argument is the same old cliched liberal one that reads principles into the Constitution that aren't there. There's no obligation to accomodate all citizens equally. It there was, there would be chaos upon chaos.

It's really no use trying to argue with you. All I can say is "We'll see."

First, I am far from liberal, in fact I am a dyed in the wool strict constitutionalist. Being that as it may I consider it my obligation to study and understand the constitution. The 9th ammendment may be the most underutilized and misunderstood of the original 10. A simple reading will make it clear that there are in fact unnamed yet wholly equal rights not ennumerated.

There's no obligation to accomodate all citizens equally.
Amendment XIV
Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
