Justice Sunday II: Return of the Extremists
by TChris
Remember Justice Sunday? Religious extremists who believe they have a God-given right to select the next Supreme Court Justice plan a sequel: Justice Sunday II.
[The event] will focus on "the court's hostility toward religion and Christianity in particular," said Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council and the principal organizer of the event. Its subtitle is a prayer said each time the court meets: "God save the United States and this Honorable Court."
The claim that the Supreme Court is hostile to religion is a bizarre misperception of reality. In truth, the extreme religious right is hostile to the Constitution, which protects us all from governmental interference with, or advocacy for, particular religious beliefs.
