Today's Judicial Dunce

Yesterday, U.S. District Court Justice Clarence Cooper of the Northern District of Georgia, appointed to the bench by disgraced former President B.J. Clinton (go figure), decided to expose his judicial ignorance and wage war against the United States Constitution with regard to Civil Action Case #1 02-CV-2325-CC; Jeffrey Michael Selman, Kathleen Chapman, Jeff Silver, Paul Mason, And Terry Jackson, Vs Cobb County School District and Cobb County Board Of Education challenging the constitutionality of a ?sticker commenting on evolution, which the Cobb County Board of Education? adopted in March of 2002 and placed in certain science textbooks later that year.?

In his decision, Cooper stated that "By denigrating evolution, the school board appears to be endorsing the well-known prevailing alternative theory, creationism or variations thereof.? Uh, excuse me, but doesn?t that statement alone basically make the case that both Creationism and Evolution are therefore equally subject to scientific review? Since even you admit that ?creationism or variations thereof? are, for the sake of argument, ?THEORIES?, then how is it that one of them could possibly ?denigrate? the other except by choice of the student? Yes, CHOICE! That word so frequently used by liberal activist Judiciaries seeking to give legal authority to those who CHOOSE to murder innocent unborn children. Also, if you?re acknowledging that ?even though the sticker does not specifically reference any alternative theories," then why exactly are you implying that it?s endorsing ?creationism or variations thereof??

But before I go any further, let's take a look at what's written in the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America:

Bill of Rights

Article I.

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.

By saying that stickers placed on science books which alert students that the text within promotes ?THEORIES? of evolution establishes ?an endorsement of religion,? he has proved beyond reasonable doubt that he is incapable of interpreting the First Amendment of the Constitution and has essentially become a government advocate of an established religion himself. How is this possible you ask? Let?s say we take a look at the meaning of the word ?religion? from the definition given to us by Noah Webster in 1828 wherein he states;

RELIGION, n. [relij'on].

4. Any system of faith and worship. In this sense, religion comprehends the belief and worship of pagans and Mohammedans, as well as of Christians; any religion consisting in the belief of a superior power or powers governing the world, and in the worship of such power or powers. Thus we speak of the religion of the Turks, of the Hindoos, of the Indians, &c. as well as of the Christian religion. We speak of false religion, as well as of true religion.

This is very interesting indeed. According to the good Mr. Webster, religion is basically ?any system of faith or worship.? Well, since faith is the belief in that which we cannot see or fully comprehend...... What sayeth ye about "faith" Noah Webster?

FAITH, n.

1. Belief; the assent of the mind to the truth of what is declared by another, resting on his authority and veracity, without other evidence; the judgment that what another states or testifies is the truth.

There is absolutely not enough sufficient evidence available to unequivocally prove that we have evolved from any type of lower life form and therefore, by scientific definition, the notion that evolution is anything other than a theory is both reckless and dubious at best. Also, by acknowledging unproven theories as fact and attempting to promote said theories as such, Judge Cooper has decided to become an advocate of a faith based system of beliefs, hence making his decision in this civil case a clear promotion of religion by the judicial branch of the United States government.

If there should be anything changed in our Constitution, it should be to specify a limit to the length of time served by individuals appointed to Federal Judiciary posts. Far too much power has been given to these un-elected officials and by allowing them to continue to legislate from the Federal Judicial Bench is both a crime and a threat to our nation's constitutional due process!
