Actually, there are no Evangelical Christians on the Supreme Court, or even any mainline Christians. No Protestants at all.

All are either Jewish (Ginsberg, Breyer, Kagan) or Roman Catholic (Roberts, Scalia, Kennedy, Alito, Thomas, Sotomayor).

When Thomas first got first got unto the SCOTUS, wasn’t he a Charmismatic Episcopalian (or something like that)?

I have no problem with him living his own life as his religious interpretation guides him but I have a huge problem with him attempting to impose his personal religious beliefs on me. By the way is he wearing mixed fibers, stone the bastard.

You’re right Tim, that’s why Pat Robertson wants to replace SCOTUS with the fundamentalist kind.

They are accredited. But that doesn’t mean their graduates are SUCCESSFUL lawyers.
Regent U is trying to game Washington, D.C by having it’s graduates get jobs and put themselves in higher and higher levels of influential positions there. They are really trying to have SCOTUS be who they think will favor their Christian ideals.
Disregarding the fact that SCOTUS has only two Jewish people on it. The rest ARE Christian.

The ADF…oh s’cuse me, the AACD, Alliance Against Christian Defamation: takes on cases involving Christians getting in trouble for their anti gay activities just about exclusively.

It seems that the client focus is SO narrow, that it’s a wonder this law group can stay afloat.
Pretty much all of their cases have been lost and their complaint is because of activist judges, or homosexuals being highly placed and influential in the outcomes.
As I said, their ONLY cases always have something to do with gay people and nothing else.
And they do a work that involves filing briefs, or demanding some kind of stays or court trials without video.
They sued when they found out that Walker’s court had used part of the 8 trial in a lecture, which they said exposed witnesses that shouldn’t have been.
They truly strain at gnats sometimes.
But they almost never win. What usually happens is they just delay the inevitable until they think no one will notice what’s actually happened.

There is an awesome bit in the Miller lawsuit when they listed the people they are suing. It says “Liberty University – a purported educational institution”

I sure wouldn’t want him or any lawyer who graduated from his “law school” representing ME in court!

“We might be a Bonhoeffer in Nazi Germany”

Oh. Please.

Since they raised it first, I am not violating Godwin’s Law by stating that Bonhoeffer gave his life defying the Christian-Aryan Third Reich, standing up against injustice perpetrated by those who claimed to be God-ordained to exterminate anyone they didn’t like. Bonhoeffer and Niemoller are spinning fast in their graves.

A law school that teaches there were dinosaurs on Noah’s Ark isn’t much of a law school. They are all just whambulance chasers anyway.
