"A demagogue like Moore..."

Sorry, but can't let this go without calling you on it. He's definitely, absolutely, a Conservative, and, of course, very religious. But if you're going to call a man (especially a judge, let alone a Chief Justice) a demagogue, you're going to have to provide examples.

Conservative != Demagogue.
Christian (even religious right) != Demagogue.

I'm sick of seeing people called names without hard evidence to back it up. I'm not religious right by any means (I'm Pennsylvania Catholic scum) but that doesn't mean I don't believe in intellectual honesty.

I call. Let's see those cards.

I call. Let's see those cards.

Let's look at Webster's.

Demagogue= a person who appeals to the emotions and prejudices of people in order to gain political power.

Moore did that in 1998 to win the office of Chief Justice, and he will do it again.

How can we oppose Jesse Jackson and support Justice Moore?

A house divided against itself cannot stand. What Moore has been doing is setting up unnecessary conflict between one faction of Americans and another. I believe in Christ--He stands supreme. I also believe that the Ten Commandments are part of the foundation of our civilization and that those who are fighting this carving are stupid.

But I can believe that racism exists and that it's wrong and STILL believe that Jesse's way increases it, rather than lessening it. Moore is deliberately provoking anti-Christian sentiment, and unnecessarily. He wants to be a martyr--to no real point except to heighten the conflict. Why? What good does it do for the Kingdom of God?

This is not the way God works.
