Discussion: Ala. Chief Justice Clarifies He Thinks First Amendment Protects All Religions

Discussion for article #222449

Why must they start yammering before their brain is fully engaged? Because then we’re stuck reading all the insincere regrets and if I offended anyone crap and what I really meant was. . . something different than what you just heard me say.

If that is not what you meant then that is not what you should have said.

“Everybody, to include the United States Supreme Court, has been deceived as to one little word in the First Amendment called religion. They can’t define it,” he said during his speech.

“Buddha didn’t create us, Mohammed didn’t create us, it was the God of the Holy Scriptures. They didn’t bring the Koran over on the pilgrim ship,” he continued. “Let’s get real, let’s go back and learn our history. Let’s stop playing games.”

While he didn’t say anything about the 1st amendment, he also doesn’t make much sense. How do you jump from being created by his God to the Koran not being on the Mayflower?

He probably still believes that Adam and Eve had a T-Rex for a guard dog.

Well Louis Gohmert (also a former judge) just said that the Constitution protects ONLY those who cling to god and guns. http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/05/06/louie-gohmert-constitution-only-protects-americans-who-cling-to-god-and-guns/

He can say that because even if he were shot between the eyes, it wouldn’t matter, since poor little Louie was born without a brain.

Worse than thinking this stuff, he used to be a judge himself. I daresay he was more of a threat there then spouting his BS in the House.

There’s bound to be some confusion when you’re getting the First Amendment explained by a guy who’s famous for not understanding it or following it when ordered to do so and who believes it says the exact opposite of what it actually says. Bound to be.

“I didn’t mean it, I just said it.” Idiot jackass.

Here we go again…“Not meant to be a factual statement” territory.

He said this in a speech, not some random off the cuff remark. I expect he’s back peddling now that he got caught.

“Why must they start yammering before their brain is fully engaged?”

Because they’re almost always yammering in the company of a tiny sliver of society who think exactly the way they do (which earns them momentary applause), and it’s easy to forget in the moment how their ignorant, rude, and/or crude words will look and sound in public. Why they do this over and over again, who knows?

That IS EXACTLY what you meant!!

Let’s re-iterate, shall we…

""Everybody, to include the United States Supreme Court, has been deceived as to one little word in the First Amendment called religion.

YES, let’s do get real. As earth evolved, the process of Evolution created all life on earth, INCLUDING us!! NOT some mythical spirit in the sky! Too bad you can’t find that fact in your book of superstitions!

Classic Teabaggery:

“I didn’t say/do what I said/did.”

It’s not impossible. My downstairs neighbor has a 175 lb. Great Dane named T-Rex. My building has a T-Rex for a guard dog!
