Now that Alito is out of the closet, I wonder how many other Supreme Court justices see their role as cultural and religious warriors rather than as impartial interpreters of the law?

“The great silent majority is rising like never before & under our leadership,” recites from a teleprompter in a typical version of the script. “We will pray to God for our strength & for our liberty. We will pray for God & we will pray w/God. We are one movement, one people, one family & one glorious nation under God.”

As Lucian K. Truscott says, the Alabama Supreme Court ruling that cells in a test tube are a baby and deserve the same rights that a baby has puts Republicans in a real bind.

Attempting to legislate and impose evangelical "Christians'" religious beliefs on the rest of us is unconstitutional. If only today's GOP truly believed what our Founders did, the U.S. would be in much better shape. The Founders never intended for the U.S. to be an authoritarian theocracy.
