It's your contention that the Supreme Court cannot err?

I don't know why it's so hard to understand. There is no functional appeal to a Supreme Court decision. It makes little difference if they are in error or not, their decision is the law of the land. Not what Trisham thinks or what Prokopton thinks or what anyone else thinks. Millions of people think their decision of Roe v. Wade was wrong, but still millions of babies die every year.

To argue that Supreme Court decisions, like Everson v. Board of Education, are not important because, in your personal opinion, the Supreme Court did not follow the Constitution, is futile and unproductive. Until overturned, they are the law regardless of what you or anyone else thinks, wrong or right.

Cursing the darkness enlightens nothing.

blah, blah, blah...

Excuse me but your contention on this thread has been that Supreme Court decisions are evidence for the basis of their Constitutionality. You are wrong.

I think you are missing the forest for the trees. The Supreme law of the land is God e.g. inalienable rights all are endowed with. One can not belly up to the bar and acknowledge God given unalienable rights without as well acknowledging God and God given truths that premise such rights.

As such, the Supreme Court is simple an equal branch of a government UNDER God. The Supremes are just as limited as the other two branches and only operate under the powers granted them by the people. The Supremes rulings are therefore not supreme.
