Of course, they only do this because they think religion is a bad thing and they are trying to stamp it out, just as they extend the 8th Amendment to apply to capital punishment only because they themselves oppose it. Where an expansive reading of a Constitutional provision would not advance the liberal agenda, our courts are perfectly capable of adopting a restrictive approach, under which, in modern conditions, the provision never has any application. This has happened with the Second Amendment. Which I guess brings me back around to my original topic this morning, gunpowder. We’re off to the land of the free and the home of the brave and hope to return with all of our fingers intact.
