Moore is NOT the judge who ignores the words "Almighty God" in the Alabama constitution.

No. He just decides what religious expression of Almighty God he will display in a lobby he doesn't own, and says, directly, that Hindus, Buddhists, and Muslims have rights in the US only because they are granted them by Judeo-Christianity.

Moore is a megalomaniac, and every time he opens his mouth he proves it.

He's a 21st century Huey Long.

We should discuss who had the authority in that building to put up any display, not who owns the building. You realize, of course, that public buildings contain all sorts of displays, works of art, and community announcements.

Someone decides who gets to put them up. For example, you cannot walk into your local courthouse and hang up your favorite painting, even though there might be other paintings hanging there.

Also, what's the date where you're at?

Sink, my friend, you couldn't be MORE wrong about MOORE (or about his principled stand for the truth)!

Do you honestly think that a Hindu or a Buddhist or a Muslim immigrant to this country has MORE or LESS freedom in America than he does in his home of origin?

If he has more freedom here, then what's to complain about Judge Moore's display -- even if the moral foundation of our legal system is Judaeo-Christian (and it is, whether or not you accept it)?

If our Judaeo-Christian-based legal system is so TERRIBLE, then why are so many Muslims, Buddhists, and Hindus busting their butts to get over here as fast as they can.

People vote with their feet. Would you PREFER to live in Saudi Arabia, where the Qur'an is the national Constitution?

You make no sense. Trashing Judge Moore the way you do ultimately makes you look small-minded -- and does nothing to take away from Judge Moore's courageous stand.

Comparing Moore to Huey Long is, in my view, the BASEST of SLANDER. Long was in it for money, etc. Moore is in this for principle. (In case you hadn't noticed, he's been suspended.) Duh!

Do you really think that it is an ACCIDENT that our Christian Founders created a system that is only 1000 times better than any system found in any Muslim or Buddhist or Hindu country on earth?

...he's a 21st century Huey Long....

"Chief Justice Moore served our country as a Captain in the Military Police Corps of the United States Army. He also served as Battalion Staff Officer at Ft. Riley, Kansas, and as a Company Commander in Vietnam. During his professional career, Justice Moore became the first full-time Deputy District Attorney in Etowah County and served in this position from 1977 until 1982. He returned to private law practice in Gadsden until he was elected Circuit Judge, Place Number One of the Sixteenth Judicial Circuit in Gadsden, in 1992. He served in this capacity from 1992 until his election as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Alabama in November 2000."

What is the Statute number that Judge Moore was alleged to violate?

Sinky?

Turn around, I want to talk to you.

How dare you call Judge Moore, a man whose shoes you are not even fit to wipe, 'a 21st century Huey Long'?

Maybe the whole question of whose god is the true God could be settled the way Elijah did in the OT. That would settle the question once and for all, now wouldn't it? All we need is a Prophet willing to challenge the Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, etc.

Unfortunately, it wouldn't make any difference to Liberals. They'd still complain.

Oh well....it was an idea....
