The founders would have considered Scalia attempts to weaken
separation of church and state nothing short of obscene. Ditto for
Scalia giving the police all kids of unconstitutional power.

Why Oh Why do liberal Dems keep calling Scalia an originalist?

You've divined the intent of the founders? Amazing! Where is your
documentation of *any* of the founders besides Thomas Jefferson
writing about "the separation of church and state"?

Do you even know what the word "respecting" means in the first
amendment to the Constitution?

Elaborate, please.

By the way, do you think a mandate by the federal government to force
everyone to purchase health insurance is unconstitutional?

[Careful: I do not claim a state law to that effect would be in
violation of the US Constitution. ]

Why not?

By the way, are you any relation to Lisa Sowle Cahill, who has written

It wasn't just the founders, but _all_ Americans of that era.

Seven Revolutionary era state constitutions had an outright ban on
ministers running for public office and "public opinion precluded it
everywhere else."

Only a sophomoric ignoramus would think that separation of church and
state is written into the US Constitution.

The fact that you deleted my question about whether you know the
meaning of "respecting" is also telling.

Here's a little hint: three states had established Congregationalist
churches into the 19th century. The 1st Amendment to the US
Constitution forbade Congress to touch them.

Even more sophomoric.

And where is ANY documentation of this?

That's only a small aspect of separation of church and state, and btw
those were state constitutions, not federal.

And whom are you quoting?

They had very good reasons to separate Church from the State. After all,
the Constitution was written less than 100 years after the Salem withc

As Mark Twain remarked, "Preachers promise Heaven on Earth, but they

The same can be said for Socialists, Communists, Fascists, Islamists and
any other ism that wishes to impose itself on people and take away their
personal and/or economic freedom.

And, ironically, Jefferson's stress was on the state keeping its hands
off the church, rather than vice versa. He would have been appalled
at Obama strong-arming Catholic universities, hospitals, etc. into
violating their consciences.

Notre Dame got NO traction out of giving Obama that honorary
doctorate.

No relative of Lisa Cahill, I hope.

Looks like y'all are treating sCftS as a catchall phrase that means
anything you want it to mean.

I believe liberals call this technique "the living Constitution". ;-)

Yes, and I believe Connecticut kept it that way until ca. 1830.

The first amendment forbade Congress to make any law abolishing it.
The word "respecting" meant "with respect to," and it was a knife that
cut both ways. On the one hand, Congress could not make any law
establishing a national church. But equally, it could not
disestablish any state established churches.

States were very jealous of their rights in those days. Did you know
Patrick Henry was against the US Constitution because he thought it
gave too much power to the federal government, even after everyone was
assured the Bill of Rights would be added? It took Herculean efforts
by Madison et.al. (federalist papers and all that) to get New York to
approve the Constitution.

> As Mark Twain remarked, "Preachers promise Heaven on Earth, but they
> deliver Hell."

Mark Twain was an embittered cynic in his later years. I prefer Harry
S Truman's "They think I give them hell, but I give them the truth,
and they think it's hell."

> The same can be said for Socialists, Communists, Fascists, Islamists and

I'll go along with that to a great extent. Right now, Obama is moving
us towards the kind of fascism one sees in Communist China: lots of
scope for entrepreneurs (including AFAIK some big businesses) but
curtailed personal freedoms.

Contraception is a big business, and some drug companies are drooling
at the prospect of women turning up their noses at generics and going
for the expensive brands, which they can make even more expensive.
It's no skin off the noses of the women, they don't even have to copay
like we have to do for life-saving medicine.

And Obama is in bed with these companies, and with Planned Parenthood.

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.

Now I've heard many interpretations of this, including that "an
establishment
of religion" is a building. Under this interpretation what one did in
the
building was your own business but as soon as one steps out of it
religion could be regulated. If this was the case then it seems like
"thereof"
should have been "therein".

The more common interpretation is related to Henry VIII's
establishment
of the Anglican Church and declaring himself the head of the church.
Many people came to the colonies so they could practice their own
religion and did not want the state telling them what the tenets of
their
religion should be.

The indigenous people of North America practiced many religous rites
that the state saw fit to control. The founding fathers were humans
and
not gods. If you recall an argument about the "ground-zero mosque"
you
will see that many who claim the state does have the right to
interfere
with the free exercise of a religion. Religious beliefs come into
conflict.
The law has to be supreme and not religous beliefs.

The free exercise of religion doesn't extend into business practices.
Once a religion moves into business the business is subject to
regulation.

the founders never placed the text: "separation of church and state",
into the constitution; so how would you know they'd see his alleged
attempts as "obscene"?

I did. Did you?

If so, you should be able to find at least two attempts by Scalia
which a founding father would demonstrably be appalled at.

In other words, can you succeed where no one in this thread has even
tried?

I'm referring to the alt.abortion thread, from which you crossposted
this to talk.abortion without telling anyone, as per your usual
custom.

He doesn't. And he hasn't even tried, as I pointed out to Keegan.

Anyway, I'm glad you are still around, Bill. I was gone for over two
months from the abortion newsgroups, posting heavily at
sci.bio.paleontology and even more at talk.origins, and didn't even
have time to lurk and see what you and Dino are up to.

Among other things, I am taking various steps to try and ensure that
talk.origins doesn't come to resemble talk.abortion any more than it
already does. I've dubbed talk.abortion "the Usenet newsgroup from
hell" there without actually naming it. [But if I see a good reason
for naming it, I will.]

That reminds me--it was great coming back yesterday and posting to
various threads without seeing a single reply to me from "the usual
suspects." It reminded me of an old Irish blessing that ends with
"and may you be in heaven half an hour before the devil knows you are
gone."

Nor did they place the text "individualist ownership of guns" either.

What's your point?

Seven (7) Revolutionary era state constitutions had an outright ban on
ministers and priests running for public office and anything like Pat
Robertson or, for that matter, Santorum hyping Romney's Mormon
religion at every opportunity, was unthinkable everywhere else.

The Constitution tossed out Profiling and government treating people
different. Remember the Declaration of Independence "all men are created
equal" but after "creation" they are all distinct individuals..... It's
NOT who you were created to be like pre constitutional life, it's NOW
what you do after you are created.


Those seven States became part of the United States and in the United
States, the government treats all people equal under the law. That means
people created that become Catholic priests are no different from people
Created that are of any eye color or any genetic disease in teh eyes of
the law.

> for that matter, Santorum hyping Romney's Mormon

It should be about government related issues but then you get the
pedophiles that you don't want to elect to office and is that personal
or religious or a genetic defect and how do you separate what is NOT a
political issue.

Or to simplify.... do pedophiles believe in God? And does that make it
out of bounds to mention their pedophilia if they say God approves of it?

The First Freedom trumps every other right.

That's why it is called the "First Freedom."

By "censoring" Jesus -- and athiesm -- out of the political debate it
even trumphs the Second Freedom, freedom of communication.

Not so. The constitution addressed the problems of the day. State sponsored
religions were one of those problems. Today, we are experiencing the same
kinde of problems with religion and its recognition by the state. Why (for
exdample) is thee a special tax table for, "married couples" in the IRS form
1040? Did some religious lobby get congress to put it there? And if so,
isn't this a problem with, congress making laws that, "respect an
establishment of religion"? As an atheist, it disturbs me that the word,
"marriage" is even used in any government document, either state or federal.
Marriage is a religious ritual, and as such, the state should have nothing
to do with it, much less giving tax breaks to those who practice it.

Do you claim to disagree with everything passed by congress that isn't
specifically in the constitution?

What about the Louisiana purchase? That's not in the constitution
either.

You think we should sell it back to France?

And the only way to understand the "establish" in the First Freedom is
to understand the context.

The context is that everything said by and about the Revolutionary
Americans indicates that 99% of Revolutionary Americans agreed with
Jefferson on separation of church and state.

And it's easy to see the mischief caused by this major violation of
church and state.

It gives the 0.001% sponsored media yet another opportunity to Jerry
Springerize the political debate off of disparity of wealth and off of
other vital economic issues and onto yet another culture war.

Ain't that clever?

Ain't that slicker 'n snot?

The early state constitutions also banned atheists from holding public
office. This was smart too as you don't want _anyone_ distracting the
political debate off of the rich getting richer and the poor poorer.

The Tories weren't two bit shills like Scalio, Thomas and Roberts.

it didn't mean people couldn't pray in the town square, and jefferson
never said so nor implied such a thing. as a matter of fact, the
first amendment actually guarantees a right to public prayer, no
matter what the religion.

why didn't you post a link demonstrating a direct conflict of interest
with elana kagan and obama care along with this non-direct conflict of
interest of thomas's wife and obamacare?

I especially like the last sentence:

Thomas should stay. There's no conflict of interest. Kagan,
though, has to recuse herself if for no other reason than to
protect the integrity of the court.

Keegan still hasn't hinted at any link with the concept of separation
of church and state, even if his urls turn out to show something.

So far, it seems that these "attempts" are, at worst, a hesitancy to
recuse himself in an unidentified alleged conflict of interest.

Well done, Bill! Unlike Keegan's corrupted urls and videos whose
accompanyiing text gives no hint as to what the alleged conflicts of
interest were, you took us to a site where it is all there in black
and white, and readable in a jiffy by a speed reader like myself.

And the text is really hard-hitting:

___________ excerpts___________

Supreme Court: Should a justice who participated in ObamaCare's
creation recuse herself from the court's review of that law? Of
course. But then a nominee who lies in confirmation hearings shouldn't
be on the court anyway.

If Justice Elena Kagan were a person of character, she would sit out
the Supreme Court's hearing of the challenge to the Patient Protection
and Affordable Care Act.

But during her confirmation hearings in June of last year, she
indicated she would not. And since this Monday, when the court
announced it would take the case, she has done nothing to suggest she
will recuse herself after all. Nor has the court made any statement
about her recusal, a convention it usually follows when a justice
takes himself or herself off a case.

Here are the facts on Kagan: She was the administration's solicitor
general when ObamaCare became law last year. She has acknowledged that
she was at a meeting in which state litigation against ObamaCare was
discussed, though she said she was not involved in any legal responses
concerning the states' litigation.

We also know that Kagan enthusiastically supported ObamaCare. This is
made clear in emails released last week by the Justice Department.

"I hear they have the votes, Larry!! Simply amazing," Kagan wrote on
the day ObamaCare passed the House in an email to Laurence Tribe, the
Harvard law professor who was working at that time in the Obama
Justice Department.

...

Nearly lost in this is the possibility that Kagan lied during her
confirmation. She told the Senate Judiciary Committee that she had not
been asked about the legal issues of ObamaCare nor had she offered any
views on them. The emails, however, seem to tell a different story.
Two exclamation points plainly show that in her legal opinion,
ObamaCare was constitutional.

...

The case against Thomas, however, is weak. He didn't work for a White
House that pressed for the law. Nor is there a record of his
disclosing an opinion on it. His only link is his wife, who's been
involved with groups opposed to ObamaCare.
============ end of excerpts

No mention of Scalia. I can only conclude that jimmy keegan is afraid
to tell us what the alleged conflict of interest is in his case.

Corrupted url. I did find the correct one, but it just took me to
another video accompanied by an allegation by Rachel Maddow [who could
be a Keeanoid liar for all I know] claiming some unidentified
confllict of interest.

I refuse to spend valuable time looking at a YouTube video which might
have as llittle to do with conflict of interest as Keegan's laughable
"evidence" that I am a plagiarist, exposed in the thread which the
following post inaugurated:

Here I've deleted four urls which I've already commented on, in reply
to the pathological liar posting as "james g. keegan, jr." and also in
reply to Bill Mosco.


> http://www.scotusblog.com/2009/02/scalia-chaos-reigns-in-corruption-cases

Let me guess: You googled "corruption" and "Scalia" and found an url
that had the two words together, but never bothered to actually look
at the site. Correct?

Here's the headline and the first few sentences:

Scalia: “Chaos” reigns in corruption cases

Justice Antonin Scalia, dissenting from the
Supreme Court’s refusal on Monday to
review a Chicago public corruption case,
complained that the federal law governing
such cases is so loosely worded that it
could even be used against “a salaried employee’s
phoning in sick to go to a ball game.”

And, in case that isn't enough to tell an addlepated maniac like you
what the article is really all about, here's a little more:

He contended that the Court should
take on the task of interpreting the fraud law,
and deciding whether, in fact, it is unconstitutional.
“It seems to me quite irresponsible
to let the current chaos prevail,” he wrote.

> http://crooksandliars.com/john-amato/judge-antonin-scalia-talks-tea-p...
> rs-

Corrupted url. Do you have the guts -- or even the KNOWLEDGE -- to
let us know what the linked page was supposed to be all about..

> a simple google search reveals hundreds of other cases,

...where "scalia" appear in an url along with a word like
"corruption"? Don't make me laugh!

> are you still pretending to be a phd

I have a Ph.D. [see below] as well as a professorship [ibid.] and I
can prove it to you. You, on the other hand, cannot even prove that
you aren't senile and stupid.

"Spartakus" was able to make you look comparatively un-senile and un-
stupid with his shameless bootlicking of you together with a sometimes
urbane and erudite way of writing that helped him maintain his
dishonest facade of what I call "counterfeit sincerity".

Now you have no one who can make you even appear to be a decent or
likable human being.

>or do you just admire scalia's
> corruption?

Do you ever read anything (or, in the case of videos, listen to
anything) before you post its url?

Financial entanglement is the worst form. Thomas
stood to gain financially from his ruling. How is that weak?

Do you know the meaning of the word "recuse," or does it have to be
explained to you?

People documented the fact that those cliams, have been made, but not
any credible evidence for the claim that Scalia is a crook, or even
that he ought to recuse himself.

Meanwhile, you covered yourself in doo-doo by not checking the
contents of a site whose url you posted, or else lying about it, as I
demonstrated in the following post:

Here I've deleted four urls which I've already commented on, in reply
to the pathological liar posting as "james g. keegan, jr." and also in
reply to Bill Mosco.

> http://www.scotusblog.com/2009/02/scalia-chaos-reigns-in-corruption-c...

Let me guess: You googled "corruption" and "Scalia" and found an url
that had the two words together, but never bothered to actually look
at the site. Correct?

Here's the headline and the first few sentences:

Scalia: “Chaos” reigns in corruption cases

Justice Antonin Scalia, dissenting from the
Supreme Court’s refusal on Monday to
review a Chicago public corruption case,
complained that the federal law governing
such cases is so loosely worded that it
could even be used against “a salaried employee’s
phoning in sick to go to a ball game.”

And, in case that isn't enough to tell an addlepated maniac like you
what the article is really all about, here's a little more:

He contended that the Court should
take on the task of interpreting the fraud law,
and deciding whether, in fact, it is unconstitutional.
“It seems to me quite irresponsible
to let the current chaos prevail,” he wrote.

Corrupted url. Do you have the guts -- or even the KNOWLEDGE -- to
let us know what the linked page was supposed to be all about..

> a simple google search reveals hundreds of other cases,

...where "scalia" appear in an url along with a word like
"corruption"? Don't make me laugh!

> are you still pretending to be a phd

I have a Ph.D. [see below] as well as a professorship [ibid.] and I
can prove it to you. You, on the other hand, cannot even prove that
you aren't senile and stupid.

"Spartakus" was able to make you look comparatively un-senile and un-
stupid with his shameless bootlicking of you together with a sometimes
urbane and erudite way of writing that helped him maintain his
dishonest facade of what I call "counterfeit sincerity".

Now you have no one who can make you even appear to be a decent or
likable human being.

>or do you just admire scalia's
> corruption?

Do you ever read anything (or, in the case of videos, listen to
anything) before you post its url?

Which one? in what way? Documentation, please:
What's the Koch brothers got to do with Clarence Thomas? There was
something at the bottom of the webpage about Koch brothers, but the
word "Thomas" does not appear in the linked article,
http://blueamerica.crooksandliars.com/nicole-belle/koch-brothers-give-candidates-million

And the only place "Thomas" appears on the whole page is in the
following announcement:

Blue America Welcomes Trevor Thomas (D-MI)

Let me guess: you did a james g. keegan, jr. style web-search,
entering "crooks" and "Thomas" and "Koch" and, like keegan, you didn't
bother to check out the url that scored the most hits.

As for what YOUR link says about him: the money there was spent by
citizens who were afraid, and rightly so, that a massively
hypocritical campaign would be waged against Thomas; the article does
not even allege that Thomas got as much as one thin dime of what was
spent.

It reminds me of the Sherlock Holmes case of the dog that did not bark
in the night.

Read the comments on the article, especially the one by ricky —
2/16/11 9:05am and the unanswered one by The Last Word — 2/16/11
9:07am a few posts down. Sure, there are lots of rabidly anti-Thomas
comments in there, but most of them are just spleen-venting.

your post was cut following your first three lies plagiarist, although i
suppose we could quibble and refer to the paragraph above as a compound
lie.

You are such a pathetic has-been [or should I say never-was] and
pathological liar that you regularly use baseless falsehoods as a
substitute for evidence. And that is what you have done here, you
plagiarist.

As for your counter-charge of "plagiarist" against me, the following
two posts in combination decisively refute that:
