Say...uh...I don't quite know how to phrase this, but we haven't seen Larry around recently, and that smoking heart on that altar over there? I was just wondering...

Robert Bork is one of our greatest legal minds, and his "Borking", so to speak, was definitely one of the all-time great travesties of injustice.

As far as the part about "long live the Islamic Republic of Iran", I'm afraid we'll have to part ways there.

When the liberals have their own country they can have your religion.

Here's a clue: Morality and religion are important becasue they support freedom, not because they replace it. Forced morality and forced religion are false versions of both and only result in oppression, not morality. What we should shoot for is a government that protects and respects religion and morality, so that they can work their wonders on the public and aid in the governing of self. Without them we colapse, but forcing them (with some exceptions on the morality side) destroys them.

Our current problem is that government is forcing secularism. We have largely lost our freedom to express religous and moral views. Those who do are treated like homosexuals used to be treated -- with shame and rejection. See, taboos, shame, social disapproval, all serve to aid a free society so that laws are less necessary. But these natural parts of social interaction can work in reverse, causing peer and social pressure to act wrongly rather than rightly.

Yada yada...you miss the picture. Religion and morality are the strongest SUPPORTS of a free people. When the government via the courts become hostile to both, then our culture suffers and eventually so does our freedom. The problem is gov't hostility, not gov't enforcement.

we must learn to make the rights of the individual subordinate to the morality and virtue of the whole.

and that's how communism got it's footing - sounds good EXCEPT the one clause that takes freedom out of the equation.
