What is with Roy Moore?
Edited on Fri Aug-22-03 07:47 AM by TioDiego
Why doesn't he move to Utah and become a dagnab Mormon, where the separation of church and state is only a block and a half? Goofball city bingo!

3. Muslims in the community should start constructing a minaret
Edited on Fri Aug-22-03 07:55 AM by lebkuchen
in front of the judicial building, calling the masses to prayer five times a day. Once the celebration of Ramadan starts, that ought to get the Alabama community to put pressure on Moore to understand the importance of a non-denominational government. If not, then bring in the Shintos, the Daoists, the Confusionists, the Buddhists, the Hindus, and so forth, so each group has equal access to the public display of their beliefs on government property. We need to be democratic about this.

4. He's upset because of his horrendous hair transplant
Anyone notice his hair transplant? You could count the plugs it was so bad. Hair Club for Ministers? Anyone that vain must love the spotlight.

5. He's a pharisee
Plain and simple he wants to wear his religosity in public so all can see what a holy man he is. All his followers down there as well, I don't know which brand of religion these people are practising, but it sure ain't christianity.

7. He doesn't speak for the state.
His fellow justices do. Their job is to uphold the law (it's Moore's job, too). Most Alabamans understand that.

8. Please Forward to Roy D. (Mercer) Moore
James Madison's Memorial and Remonstrance

Excerpt:

It is the duty of every man to render to the Creator such homage and such only as he believes to be acceptable to him. This duty is precedent, both in order of time and in degree of obligation, to the claims of Civil Society. Before any man can be considered as a member of Civil Society, he must be considered as a subject of the Governor of the Universe: And if a member of Civil Society, do it with a saving of his allegiance to the Universal Sovereign.

We maintain therefore that in matters of Religion, no man's right is abridged by the institution of Civil Society and that Religion is wholly exempt from its cognizance. True it is, that no other rule exists, by which any question which may divide a Society, can be ultimately determined, but the will of the majority; but it is also true that the majority may trespass on the rights of the minority.
