Gorsuch To The Rescue!

[PoliticalChic]

It has been an uphill battle fighting racists, bigots and communists, all of whom want to remove the rock, the foundation on which America was built.
Religion
Finally, thanks to President Trump's pick for the Supreme Court, there may be a light at the end of the tunnel.



1. Well-known bigot, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, made his first pick for the Supreme Court of the United States, a slaver and KKK official named Hugo Black.
Black's most infamous utterance was the pretense that Thomas Jefferson has demanded a 'wall of separation between church and state.'

There never was any such demand.

What Jefferson has promised an apprehensive Baptist community....one that suffered at the hands of larger religious groups, that no national church would be established. His 'wall' was meant to reassure the Baptists of Danbury that the federal government would not interfere with their worship.
Never did Thomas Jefferson wish to keep religion out of the American public arena.
Never.

At no time was there the intention to restrict freedom of worship, of religion, of conscience in America.

a. Hence, the first amendment:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.



2. From Roosevelt to the present, the Democrats have been opposed to religion, morality, and any Judeo-Christian influence and tradition.

a. FDR put Hugo Black on the Supreme Court

b. Under Democrat/Liberal LBJ, the law was passed that deprived pastors of their right of free speech.
What possible compelling government interest could this represent????

c. Obama critique of Americans: 'They cling to guns or religion'
There is only one 'religion' that Barack Hussein Obama has stood up for, shielded from criticism, defended and advanced....and was not our founding belief.



3. What we need is a strong conservative jurist on the Supreme Court who will re-institute the Founders view of religion and morality, and place same in its original position in this nation.


Neil Gorsuch to the rescue!
Coming right up....

Gorsuch is a good choice that won't alter radically the makeup of the court. As a good many dems already confirmed him for a seat on the federal bench it will be an obvious act of pure nonsense if they flail about in an effort to justify not confirming him here.

Good choice by trump both tactically and ideoligically.

that light at the end of the tunnel you mentioned is a train coming at you at 100mph...no more crap on our SC,,,,,,,give republicans a dose of their own medicine

 

[mudwhistle]

I wondered why the Democrats didn't pitch much of a fit about the Republicans' refusal to allow Obama's pick to be seated. Usually it would cause such chaos that we wouldn't hear the last of it. But since it was the most conservative justice that "died", not one of the liberals, it would have thrown the court over to the crazies on the left. The fact that an autopsy wasn't allowed on the body to find the cause of his death and the silence of the Obama White House that followed. This is all very suspicious. It's also suspicious the way people that get in the way of Hillary and the Democrats keep 'dying'.
Very suspicious.

Very suspicious.

Their go-to attack with reference to Gorsuch is going to be calling his seat on the bench a 'stolen seat.'
Meaning, of course, 'stolen' from Obama's pick.

False insinuation, of course.

Well, that's obviously going to be a disagreement based on opinion. I'm fine with another scalia to balance out the likes of a sotomayor.

The court should be somewhat balanced or it doesn't work either in this age of judicial activism. The real problem for the left is going to be when ginsberg kicks off. The entire liberal agenda right now sits precariously on the shoulders of a sickly 83 year old woman.

CRANSTON, R.I. (WPRI) - The prayer banner hanging in the Cranston High School West gym that's now at the center of a lawsuit by the ACLU reads in full:
Our Heavenly Father,
Grant us each day the desire to do our best,
To grow mentally and morally as well as physically,
To be kind and helpful to our classmates and teachers,
To be honest with ourselves as well as with others,
Help us to be good sports and smile when we lose as well as when we win,
Teach us the value of true friendship,
Help us always to conduct ourselves so as to bring credit to Cranston High School West.
Amen
Though the banner has hung in the gym for decades, the ACLU points to Supreme Court decisions over the separation of church and state, as well as the Cranston School District's policy which states that "the proper setting for religious observance is the home and the place of worship." http://www.wpri.com/dpp/news/cranston-west-prayer-banner-text-detail


and....
A California school had a clever fund raiser, in which one would ‘purchase’ bricks to be used for a walkway. You would purchase the bricks, and have them monogrammed with a message or quote.
Two folks had five or six bricks printed with biblical quotes that they found inspirational.

The school district refused to allow their bricks in, but when they sued, cancelled the program and refunded some $45,000 to all the contributors. California School District cancels memorial fundraiser over Bible verse bricks | Daily Mail Online

"Lawless Judges Have Created an America Where Praying Gets a Man Suspended from His Job
Yesterday, Joe Kennedy, an assistant high-school–football coach in Bremerton, Wash., was suspended. His offense? Kneeling for a short on-field prayer after football games. According to multiple news reports, for the last several years Kennedy has waited until each game ends and the players leave the field before walking to the 50-yard line and offering a quiet prayer for his students. He never asks anyone to join him, nor does he stop anyone who wants to do so.
Lawless Judges Have Created an America Where Praying Gets a Man Suspended from His Job, by David French, National Review


That whirring sound?

Calling Neil Gorsuch!

 

[PoliticalChic]

OMG!!!

....literally!!!


I posted this in the OP:
b. Under Democrat/Liberal LBJ, the law was passed that deprived pastors of their right of free speech.
What possible compelling government interest could this represent????



It just came over the news that at this morns Prayer Breakfast, President Trump said he will end the Fascist Democrat anti-free speech regulation for religious leaders!



I believe I have the vapors!

5. Gorsuch to the rescue!

"In American Atheists, Inc. v. Davenport (2010), the Tenth Circuit denied en banc review of a panel ruling that Utah violated the Establishment Clause by allowing the private Utah Highway Patrol Association to memorialize troopers killed in the line of duty by erecting large white crosses on public property near the locations of their deaths.


Gorsuch joined one dissent from the denial of rehearing en banc and wrote another. The dissent that he joined argued that the panel began with a presumption of unconstitutionality, that it employed an unreasonable “reasonable observer,” and that it denied that a religious symbol can also have secular meaning.


In his own dissent, Gorsuch complained that the Tenth Circuit’s “reasonable observer” “continues to be biased, replete with foibles, and prone to mistake.” He also opined that it is “far from clear” whether “even the true reasonable observer/endorsement test remains appropriate for assessing Establishment Clause challenges.”
Judge Gorsuch and Religious Liberty

 

[PoliticalChic]

6.Politico put it this way:

" In a biting dissenting opinion, Gorsuch contended that a three-judge panel erred in ruling that memorial crosses erected alongside public roads in Utah amount to a “government’s endorsement of Christianity.”

“So it is that we must now apparently account for the speed at which our observer likely travels and how much attention he tends to pay to what he sees. We can’t be sure he will even bother to stop and look at a monument before having us declare the state policy permitting it unconstitutional,” Gorsuch wrote in American Atheists Inc. v. Davenport. He disputed the the notion that the crosses were unconstitutional, in part, because a reasonable observer might not be able to see the names on them as they sped past.



Gorsuch, in this case and others, argues that relying on a standard of whether a reasonable person would conclude that government is endorsing a religion leads to too many instances of finding a problem when one isn’t there."

7. Gorsuch participated in a high-profile religious liberty case reviewed by the Supreme Court. He wrote a concurring opinion in the en banc 10th Circuit’s review of Hobby Lobby Stores v. Sebelius, which asked the court to decide if the 1993 Religious Freedom Restoration Act allows a closely held for-profit company to deny its employees contraceptive coverage based on religious objections.

His concurring opinion tracked the problem of complicity, and argued the lower court had given insufficient (and statutorily required) credence to the fact the company’s owners felt any sort of participation in a contraception regime violated their religious beliefs.




He writes:

“And as we have seen, it is not for secular courts to rewrite the religious complaint of a faithful adherent, or to decide whether a religious teaching about complicity imposes ‘too much’ moral disapproval on those only ‘indirectly’ assisting wrongful conduct.
Whether an act of complicity is or isn’t ‘too attenuated’ from the underlying wrong is sometimes itself a matter of faith we must respect.”

8. We find, regularly, in Judge Gorsuch's writing, the understanding that far too many decisions assume the public has a bias against religion.

Happily, this isn't the case with Gorsuch.

"Judge Gorsuch wrote a concurring opinion in a case that upheld a similar religious-freedom claim raised by the owners of Hobby Lobby Stores. In that opinion, he recognized that the owners objected to “personal involvement in facilitating access to devices and drugs that can have the effect of destroying a fertilized human egg.”


Disagreeing with his fellow judges who would deny the owners’ right to live consistently with their faith, Judge Gorsuch wrote that “it is not for secular courts to rewrite the religious complaint of a faithful adherent” or to question the reasonableness of their convictions.

A conscientious objection, Judge Gorsuch said, is “a matter of faith [judges] must respect.”



A few years later, Judge Gorsuch joined an opinion in a similar case involving Little Sisters of the Poor, a home for elderly residents in Denver, Colorado. After a three-judge panel of his court ruled against the Little Sisters and threatened to force them to violate their convictions, Judge Gorsuch joined an opinion dissenting from the denial of en banc review. That opinion said in no uncertain terms that “[w]hen a law demands that a person do something the person considers sinful, and the penalty for refusal is a large financial penalty, then the law imposes a substantial burden on that person’s free exercise of religion.”


This opinion shows that Judge Gorsuch would’ve ruled in favor of the Little Sisters and upheld their liberty.

What a good man, Gorsuch.


Happy Hearings, Neil!
