How common are portrayals of Justinian in courtrooms in the US? One of my prized possessions, BTW, is an old copy of Sohm's "Institutes of Roman Law" (the Oxford U. Press English translation, that is...)

You are easily fooled.

That's why I launch rockets for a living and have multiple graduate degrees in engineering.

Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe. Jews demand miraculous signs and Greeks look for wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. For the foolishness of God is wiser than man's wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man's strength. 1 Corinthians 1:20-26

By God's grace, I am thankfully a fool for Jesus Christ.

Some of Zell's words bear repeating:

"Everyone today seems to think that the U.S. Constitution expressly provides for separation of church and state. Ask any ten people if that's not so. And I'll bet you most of them will say 'Well, sure.' And some will point out, 'it's in the First Amendment.'

"Wrong! Read it! It says, 'Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.' Where is the word 'separate'? Where are the words 'church' or 'state.'

"Amos was the first to propose the concept of a universal God and not just some tribal deity. He also wrote that God demanded moral purity, not rituals and sacrifices. This blunt speaking moral conscience of his time warns in Chapter 8, verse 11 of The Book of Amos, as if he were speaking to us today:

That 'the days will come, sayeth the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land. Not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the word of the Lord.

That is definitely worth repeating. So is this:

Merry *Christ*mas ACLU!

God Bless Zell Miller for having the courage to stand up to the God-less left.

"Zell Miller is an idiot, in many cases a damn obvious idiot, and nothing I have seen thus far contradicts the conclusions I have come to."

Funny, I was thinking the same thing about YOU.

the fact that it is a Christian nation is why other beliefs are protected.

Yep.

I learned a long time ago, the loudest bellyachers normally have the least amount of solutions to a problem.

Rather than point out what a "tired, predictable windbag that old slouch has become" .....

It is plain to see that Zell Miller obvious is not even remotely close to your outstanding logical and mentally superior mind......What's your solution to the moral decay.

Remember "Of the 22 civilizations that have appeared in history, 19 of them collapsed when they reached the moral state America is in today.'

Waiting for your most illuminating and thought provoking answer so we can move forward on it.

Your country is depending on you. Don't fail us now. Oh' great sea demon.

not an adherent to the faith(s) that they pertain to

Respecting the eastern religions and philosophies is something that should come easy for christians and conservatives. Many concepts are similar. The founding fathers drew from deep wells of complex philosophy.

(you've surely heard "budda was not a christian but jesus would have made a good buddist")

Still, Miller is trying to defend a cornerstone of our civilization that has been attacked and taken apart by Liberals for about 40 years. The reason is because the left and all those they've deceived for this period are socialists using government to take property. Moral justice and property rights go hand in hand. The Judeo-Christian system and property rights are under attack.

While there are Christians on the left, they are deceived. Property is being taken in more unique ways every day. European governments like the Soviet Union can't compete, hence they hate Bush and want a "tolerant" US. Plaintiff attorneys are aligned with the Democratic Party for a reason as they are among the new socialist elites and government bureaucrats, right there with entertainers, environmentalists and obviously terrorists.

Journalists commit fraud in their message to millions of voters while being encouraged by their companies and obviously their chosen political party.

Someone has to start swinging back. We can thank Zell for this.

Tolerance for socialist theory of taking more for the common good enables deception to spread like crack in a project.

It is a video but it's there (below).

We determined that the speech was not given yesterday but in February of this year. I was given the wrong date. But the speech stands forever.

Are you in the right place?

Indeed. Unfortunately, quite often duty calls and I am not able to answer in a timely manner.

Thanks for the singularly intelligent relply amongst the great cacophony of wrathful braying that my post engendered.

Respecting the eastern religions and philosophies is something that should come easy for christians and conservatives. Many concepts are similar. The founding fathers drew from deep wells of complex philosophy.

While I'm not sure exactly what this has to do with my post, we concur; universal principles are universal principles.

Still, Miller is trying to defend a cornerstone of our civilization that has been attacked and taken apart by Liberals for about 40 years.

I'm sorry, I don't see that. Or, more precisely, I do not see him doing this in a consistent manner. Much like his speech to the RNC, it's too easy to shot holes in it to think that otherwise intelligent people wouldn't be able to see this and still cling to it like holy writ.

The reason is because the left and all those they've deceived for this period are socialists using government to take property.

The problem is that the right is equally as guilty in this regards, and every bit as hungry and horny for increased gov't power. This is simply undeniable, given the historical record.

Moral justice and property rights go hand in hand. The Judeo-Christian system and property rights are under attack.

Again, by the right to an equal degree.

While there are Christians on the left, they are deceived. Property is being taken in more unique ways every day. European governments like the Soviet Union can't compete, hence they hate Bush and want a "tolerant" US.

Come again? The Soviet Union hasn't existed for years. I'm not sure what you're getting at.

Plaintiff attorneys are aligned with the Democratic Party for a reason as they are among the new socialist elites and government bureaucrats, right there with entertainers, environmentalists and obviously terrorists.

While I can't stand socialism (having lived briefly under it) any more than you, I cannot agree with your points directly above. They resort to oversimplified caricatures too easily.

Journalists commit fraud in their message to millions of voters while being encouraged by their companies and obviously their chosen political party.

Equally true on the right, I'm afraid.

Someone has to start swinging back. We can thank Zell for this.

Again, I see what he is doing as shamelessly cosmetic. Ask him what he feels about getting the Fed's out of the WOD business. See what he says.

Tolerance for socialist theory of taking more for the common good enables deception to spread like crack in a project.

Again, both sides make hay with this.
