"God's Warriors": The Right's "Supreme Vision"

[rudeawakeningxxx]

this is deeply disturbing and repulsive. people like these freedom-hating acolytes need to be expunged from the earth.

[Drazha]

I'm not a fan of abortion but its really not my choice. But making a large group of Fundementalits Christian lawyers is just down right dangerous. It puts religious bias in the court rooms across america. Which kills the seperation of church and state thing we got going on.

[shreddedmeat]

They do not care about the Constitution and have corrupted the seperation of Church and State.

How do, we the people, get rid of these right wing idiots?

[missyouhoo]

I would say kill'em and let god sort them out, but that would be unchristian. Oh the irony!

[Whoo69]

The Dean of the Law School is a far-right moron who puts ideology in place of fact and impartial observance?? This idea that something isn't a right simply b/c it's not expressly mentioned in the Constitution is so easily debunkable! Do we have a right to travel? Because it's certainly not listed in the Constitution. Do we have a right to smoke? Not in the Constitution either. The founders were alive 200 years before our time!

[Whoo69]

"liberty" University! HA! How much more can you get an oxymoron? His "university" has some of the strictest rules for undergrads of any in America! It may only be beat by institutions like the Mormon BYU, which actually makes students sign an "honor code." They don't even want you to drink TEA or coffee on campus!

[ngarvison]

man, i don't like partial birth abortion, but people don't have the right to take away others' rights in the process

[HELLFIRE8282]

keep abortion legal

[prophetofdoom]

keep unborn babies alive

[lilbmore1]

Ok chickenbutt357 then that also means to keep the left wing ant american commies.From impossing thier moraless death of the american family views.Abortion is wrong its simple as that u dont want kids dont have sex,wear a condom,are give the kid up for to the state.Dont kill the little baby because u want to.

[cruz505]

its not your choice buddy, you cant tell people what to do, what if a 13 year old got rape and pregnant, was it her fault she got pregnant? Do you think its right to make her go through a pregnancy she was forced to.

[pbilger]

The conservatives justice is 10 years in jail for a 16 years old boy having sex with girlfriend, and letting a woman that killed her husband do only 65 days in jail. Conservatives are the new TERRORIST of American.

[4951WEDDEL]

You are just nuts. Conservative Justice is justice that makes sense.

[pbilger]

So it's ok the someone murders someone and does 65 days in jail and the 16 years old gets ten years. LOL--Know wonder John W. Dean wrote Conservatives without conscience. Conservatives are nothing more then gang members that force their beliefs on people. You don't even believe in Jesus's words.

[4951WEDDEL]

Conservatives are not running our courts for the most part. Liberals are, and have for decades.

[chickenbutt357]

yes and thx to those liberals, blacks now have the same rights as whites, we still have free speech, and our students are still being taught real science.

[4951WEDDEL]

Lots of people had a role in the civil rights movement. However I think you will find more Democrats opposed the Black man that Republicans. "Real science" being taught in schools is a joke. Liberal dogmatism is what is taught, not science.

[chickenbutt357]

the democrats in the 1950s were not liberals, there was a shuffling of ideologies within the political parties during that time. At any rate, you will find that "conservatives" not necessarily republicans were against civil rights for the most part, and "liberals" not necessarily democrats supported them. And lol, so evolution is liberal dogma? Seems like complete bullshit to me since evolution actually has evidence to back it up, as well as the consensus of any sane biologist.

[4951WEDDEL]

We could argue evolution and all of false "evidence" used to create the illusion of science. Evolution is the godless person's way of explaining our existence. Better a bad theory, then none at all!

[chickenbutt357]

id say the current one is better than the one thats 2 thousand years out of date and whose only evidence is an old book of questionable origin.

[pbilger]

Republicans are a joke right now. They need to dump the Right-wing terrorist that don't believe in science or equality and cloak their actions in moral superriority while pushing the country further and further from its constitutional foundations.

[4951WEDDEL]

Who said we don't believe in science or equality? You are the ones drifting from our foundation. Remember "created with right by God"!

[pbilger]

LOL--The founding Fathers make sure that we keep God and Congress apart. They didn't want the same thing they were running away from. And no you don't believe in Science--you want to pick an choose what you believe in. WHO'S GOD--I don't want any part of your God--You have left the real God--So don't try to force that bull on me.

[chickenbutt357]

religion tried to force flat earth bullshit down peoples throats 500 years ago, and theyre trying to force creation bullshit now. Its not science! we're lucky now because most people are smart enough to see it for the fraud it realy is.

[pbilger]

I hate to tell you it is a Conservative that put this 16 year away in Va and it is a Consevative that give the woman time served in Va--Rep/conservatives has no idea what the constitutions says. You need to go to the FBI web site and see how Conservatives are putting people away for sex and letting people that murder off. And the Judges are not liberal--that is just the hate coming from the conservatives. There is 98 words of hate that come from the conservatives.

[4951WEDDEL]

Without knowing the circumstances and situation of each crime, I am not going to comment on those cases. I could find outrageous decision made by Liberal judges as well. What would be the point? Liberals have used the courts force their agenda on the people of this country. First, abortions, and now gay marriage. However two can play at that game.

[pbilger]

Gods warriors are nothing more them terrorist themself. I don't believe in letting women die because they get sick when they are with child. The Anti-Christians conservatives are hurting our country. They don't believe in Science, they don't believe in equality, they don't believe in freedoms, they don't believe in minding their own business.

[4951WEDDEL]

1.6 million abortions a year NOT to preserve the woman's life, but her convenience.

[pbilger]

See you don't know as much as you think you do--did you read the report yesterday about women and babies are dying now. God's wariors are just plain terrorists--it is that simple--they don't believe in Jesus's words.

[4951WEDDEL]

What women and babies are you talking about?

[pbilger]

LOL--you shouldn't even talk about things you know nothing about. Why don't you find and read the article.

[4951WEDDEL]

I am not wasting my time chasing vague reference to a single article.

[pbilger]

I told you were to go. Just like a little lame--can't think for yourself. That is why Rep/conservatives are the terrorists--just trying to force their way of thinking on you.+

[chickenbutt357]

a womans fetus is part of her own body, she is physically connected to that embryo and her blood keeps the embryo alive. with out the mother, there would no fetus. The mother has every right to decide whether to give birth or not. Just as she has every right to decide whether to kill herself. An early stage embryo does not have a developed nervous system, therefore it is not aware of its own existance. She is doing society a favor by not having a child that she cannot provide for.

[4951WEDDEL]

First, it is an unborn child, not a fetus. Second, a woman does not have the right to kill herself. Third, unborn children feel pain, and no one knows what they are aware of. Fourth, every person deserves their right to life. Fifth, it is not about providing for the child, but for the convenience of the mother.

[pbilger]

The child has no soul until it is born. So in my book and my doctors book it is a fetus.

[4951WEDDEL]

Well, you can call it whatever you want. You and I both know it is a child. It is a human life with a soul. Ask any woman who is pregnant and wants the baby, she will tell you she is carrying a child.

[pbilger]

LOL--MY GOD SAID THAT THE SOUL COME INTO THE CHILD AT BIRTH. Learn the real bible. You don't believe in human life. You don't even believe in Jesues teachings.

[chickenbutt357]

lol ya its inconvinient for a women who can barely support herself to have a child. And, the correct clinical term is fetus. it becomes a child after it is born. And finally, (you dont have to be a neurosureon to understand this one) no nervous system=no feeling what so ever, pain included.

[chickenbutt357]

also not everyone believes that an eternal soul even exists, and if you dont believe in an eternal soul, there shouldnt be any moral dilemma over abortion. Those who dont believe in an eternal soul shouldnt be subjected to the laws and beliefs of those who do.

[hondo1188]

whatever happened to separation of church and state?

Maybe we should make our children dip thier hand in holy water before entering schools....

[asdffd]

Wake up people! Bush and his followers ARE NOT Christians. They serve in the army of Lucifer. All you have to do is look at their DEEDS, NOT THEIR WORDS. They bring about misery, death, destruction. They LIE. They crave money and wealth- they have no problem with greed. THE CHRISTIAN RIGHT DO NOT HAVE CHRISTIAN VALUES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[asdffd]

You want PROOF that Bush and his followers are the agents of Satan? JUST LOOK AT HOW HIS ADMINISTRATION HAS TREATED THE POOR! These people are EVIL! Don't get sucked into their ignorance, intolerance, and hatred. EVIL! EVIL! EVIL!

...I tell you the truth, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God. Matthew 19:24

[asdffd]

Bush and his phony followers have done a amazing job of driving people away from the Bible and the true teachings of Christ. As I said, just look at their DEEDS, not their LIES. You will see that they are agents of EVIL. They worship the almighty dollar. But Jesus said:

...I tell you the truth, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God. Matthew 19:24

[4951WEDDEL]

We spend more money every year on the "poor".

[4951WEDDEL]

You are simply delusional.

[BJrob]

If your religeon or beliefs compel you to abhore abortion..don't get one. But DO NOT presume to make those decisions for others. You have no right. That is the Right granted you by the constitution. And no other. Your God does not apply to my beliefs and his rules are for you and you alone. Not my country..nor my family. And I'll thank you to keep your god out of my buisness.

[drunkdecoy]

"And I have no doubt that every new example will succeed, as every past one has done, in showing that religion and Government will both exist in greater purity, the less they are mixed together."--James Madison

[drunkdecoy]

"Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between man and his God, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship, that the legislative powers of government reach actions only, and not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should

[drunkdecoy]

'make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,' thus building a wall of separation between church and State."Thomas Jefferson

[4951WEDDEL]

Agreed! But not a wall between GOD and State. Our nation is solely based on the premise that GOD created us with rights. It is that singular premise that has made our nation the greatest in the world.

[drunkdecoy]

"...our civil rights have no dependence on our religious opinions, any more than our opinions in physics or geometry"--Thomas Jefferson

According to Thomas Jefferson, you are wrong.

[drunkdecoy]

"Religion I found to be without any tendency to inspire, promote, or confirm morality, serves principally to divide us and make us unfriendly to one another."--Benjamin Franklin

[led4acs]

They are the real evil-doers.

[bananaman411]

They want religious freedom.

[morph39]

At what cost do they want this freedom? When the Founding Fathers wrote the part about religious freedom, it did not imply that their religion should be forced down everyone's throat. It meant they were free to practice their religion in their churches and homes. Not everyone in America is Christian and that has to be respected, as well.

[bananaman411]

There are those that want to force their views on others on both sides of the spectrum. It is a no win situation. Secularist want to force their belief's on "Christians" as well. The founding fathers wanted everyone to be able to practice the religion they chose and to not be persecuted for it. Christians are the only ones persecuted today.

[drunkdecoy]

"To compel a man to furnish contributions of money for the propagation of opinions which he disbelieves and abhors, is sinful and tyrannical."--Thomas Jefferson

Our nation was built to be secular. To have taxes pay for the propagation of your opinions, is in Jeffersons own words, Tyrannical.

[morph39]

Ihardly doubt that Christians are being persecuted to the extent that you say. At this time, Christians are not in the minority. If anybody is being persecuted its those that are in the margins.

[FattKidd]

The religious right is un-american and authoritarian. They don't believe in liberty or civil rights. They believe that everyone should believe as they do or else they're evil and less than human. They want to impose their beliefs on the whole world, let alone the USA. I say we end the tax exemption on religious organizations and tax them into oblivion.

[leesagrrlgrrl]

Wow... These guys are scary religious zealot bigots... The look in their eyes look like the ethically challenged brainless body snatched.

If you need "Commandments" to make you a moral person... you are by definition not a moral person... you are bargaining for a place in the afterlife... hypocrites...

[Dumbell99]

Partial birth abortion is wrong anyway.

[buddhabreath]

American Taliban. Dangerous, un-American, ignorant pieces o'living shite!

[witetveritas]

These people don't want religious freedom; they want christian theocracy. Luckily, lawyers on the religious right are notoriously bad at practicing law. Gives me shivers just thinking about it...

[Dumbell99]

Yeah its very scary. I may not agree with abortion but I am scared of everything else they want to do.

[chickenbutt357]

seriously dude, there is so much riding on the next election. A religious theocracy in the western world is probably the worst thing that could happen short of a nuclear war.

[truthadvocate]

The U.S. will never be a religious theocracy thanks to the constitution. You should be more worried about Democrats seizing control over healthcare, and border security. That nuclear war you mention may be realized if we can't monitor terrorists crossing our borders into our country.

[chickenbutt357]

please... not one of the 9/11 terrorists entered the US through our southern border and not one of them was even here illegally. The GOP obsession with border security has nothing to do with terrorism. And as for your healthcare comment, more people died from inadequate healthcare in the US this year than from all terrorist attacks in the US in the past 20 years. Which sounds more important to you?

[witetveritas]

Sneaking in through Mexico isn't exactly hard. The fences that are being built aren't even connected the entire way, making them practically pointless. To stop terrorism, we have to do the opposite of what we're doing now. We need to turn international opinion back in our favor. Take a page from Bill Hicks - we should take overblown Military budget and clothe every person on the planet. That'll show 'em!

[chickenbutt357]

theres a difference between clothing 3 billion people and making sure everyone in the US has healthcare

[4951WEDDEL]

Everyone has healthcare. No one can be turned away from a hospital for an inability to pay. Some people in America choose to go without health insurance. Just as some choose to drive without car insurance.

[4951WEDDEL]

So your logic is that since none of the 9-11 terrorists came through the south, none ever will! Also, you cannot force health care on people. Our health care problems were created by the government inventing Medicare. They were compounded by Medicaid. Now you want them to fix the problem they created by running all of health care!

[chickenbutt357]

lol so there reason americans suffer from lack of healthcare is because of medicaid and medicare? if it wasnt for those two programs our population would have a life expectancy slightly above that of a developing country.

[chickenbutt357]

there is a reason that FDR was elected 4 times, he must have been doing something right. If it hadnt been for the nazicon ascendancy, and we had continued what he had started, we would have a standard of living comparable to the scandanavian countries, instead we are beaten by canada and ireland. Its sad that the richest country in the world cannot provide for its least fortunate.

[4951WEDDEL]

We send money to Ireland. Canada would not exist without us. We provide better for our poor than any other country.

[chickenbutt357]

better than any other country? food stamps and $200 a month welfare checks count as helping the poor? northern europe helps their poor by giving them jobs in govt industries. They also provide a pension to seniors that you can actually live off. seriously have you ever even been abroad? how you ever left your home state, which Im guessing is alabama? have you ever seen the outside of your own anus?

[4951WEDDEL]

I have traveled abroad, but not to Europe. Comparing our great nation to countries hardly as big as some of our states is hardly far. We are not a socialist country. We don't give people anything, they are suppose to earn for themselves. We have social security which is going broke because we give it to people have not worked a day in their life. If you don't like America, go live in Europe.

[chickenbutt357]

not everyone can afford to travel. Its precisely those people we need to help. And the size of a country has nothing to do with how prosperous or "great" it is. There is a reason that the US is only 8th on the human development index, while iceland, with a pop of 300k is 2nd.

[chickenbutt357]

money we sent to ireland was purely for their military, to help fight communism, I doubt they have received anything substantial from us since the berlin wall fell. And as for canada, if australia survived without a big brother to help it why wouldnt canada? And both countries are better off than the US.

[4951WEDDEL]

We give foreign aid to Ireland. Canada depends us for their drugs and economic well-being.

[4951WEDDEL]

First, no one in America goes without healthcare except by their own choice. Second, if you would study the history of healthcare in America, you would find that it was the creation of Medicare that began the whole "medical insurance" problem.

[chickenbutt357]

ok so not being able to afford insurance is a choice? do you not understand the concept of insurance? its true that no one can be turned away from an emergency room, but they are charged later for it, and if it leads to bankruptcy, too bad. Also, for non emergency services, included life saving operations, the hospital can turn someone away if they cant pay.

[4951WEDDEL]

Do you even know why medical insurance is so expensive? I understand the concept of insurance. I have brought my own medical insurance for decades. If you're too poor for insurance, you have nothing to lose anyway. Medicare and Medicaid require doctors and hospitals to treat patients but does not pay the full cost of their treatment. That burden then falls on those with or without private insurance.

[4951WEDDEL]

A "religious theocracy" would not murder 1.6 million unborn children a year. DUDE!

[drunkdecoy]

"When a religion is good, I conceive it will support itself; and when it does not support itself, and God does not take care to support it so that its professors are obliged to call for help of the civil power, 'tis a sign, I apprehend, of its being a bad one." -- Benjamin Franklin

[chickenbutt357]

dude! but it would limit our rights and set us back 50 years in the past socially and scientifically. If you want to see what happens when the govt is taken over by dogmatic religious zealots, just take a look at afganistan or iran. there is very little difference between christian fundementalism and islamic fundementalism, they are both dangerous.

[4951WEDDEL]

Dude, it would not. This country was founded by "religious zealots". You should learn a little history about this country. Christians would never allows abortions merely for the convenience of the woman.

[chickenbutt357]

lol founded by religious zealots? part of the reason the constitution was written was so that those religious zealots would not inflict their beliefs on the general population. These are the same zealots who burned hundreds of women for being witches, the same zealots who argued that slavery was justified by god.

[chickenbutt357]

the constitution was written partly to keep religious zealots like those from forcing their ideology on the general population. Those same zealots burned women at the stake for being witches and they justified slavery by say it was warrented by god.

[chessmonk]

YIKES!
