I guess judges being impartial is out of fashion nowdays.

 

[Farkshiatdamn]

Somewhere John Asscroft has an erection thinking about this.

 

[Steeplerot]

Good thing he doesen't wear robes TENT CITY!

 

[KidViciou$]

i think the judges should enter the courtroom carrying a mock cross so they can help jesus with his burden of these sinners

 

[Steeplerot]

Ok I have to...... Is that a crucifix in your robe your honor or are you just happy to free me?

I'd like to see the Judge nailed to a fvcking cross.

I would have walked out without saying a word if I saw that. Judges are supposed to uphold the laws of the land, not the laws of their religion!

yep, what with being bias, as Steeplerot said, simply because he believes in the 10 commandments.

c'mon people, do you even have brains, or is everything knee-jerk reaction with you?

trying to get fools like yourself to object to his right to free speech is exactly what he's looking for.

And is having the 10 commandments on the wall of the Supreme Court a violation of the separation of church and state? How about a teacher warring a cross? And if any of the crazy anti Christian stuff you lbbies com up with as part of ?separation of church and state? is part of that separation, then why wasn?t it viewed as such for the first 220 years of our nation?

good joke, i'm sure nothing will be done about it either.

 

[Steeplerot]

I do not think any judge is biased for being xtrian. But it is your job to lose your opinion and be nothing but a judge IMO when you are up there. Not a christian, dem, rep anything. Well that is my idea of a good judge I would want serving the people. I don't care if he does his pet turtle when he goes home just keep it out of the courtroom.
Justice should be blind, ever hear that? LMK? That's what I'm talking about.

He is doing exactly as the Radical Religious FLL Right have planned and embraced by the U.S. Citizenry.

I wonder if this judge would object to another judge wearing a robe inscribed with Planned Parenthood's mission statement, specifically the clause on Abortion?

How about a Metallica Robe....perhaps ...And Justice for All?

or if in Texas .... Kill Em All?

 

[kage69]

The term "attention whore" comes to mind.

Hmm, any idea where I can purchase these robes?

The 10 Commandments are not just a "Christian thing." Remember folks, it was Jew carrying those tablets down the mountian. Jesus didn't walk the earth until much later.

I can understand a judge not being able to display the 10 C's on a wall or something inside the courtroom, but if he/she chooses to wear them, you cannot do anything about it. The judge has a right to free speech. To me, this is like a judge wearing a cross on a chain around his/her neck.

There IS such thing as separation of church and state, but there are STILL freedoms of speech and religion in this country.

If some of those on the Left wish to continue stomping on Christians, please get used to losing more elections. The majority of people in this country are considered Christians, and the majority of the people who vote for guys like Kerry and Gore are Christians. Clinton? Gore? Kerry? All Christians. And Clinton and Gore were from the south.

I thought the first ammendment didn't apply to things like clothing while at work. Certainly your employer can have a dress code.

His employer is the Consitution - and sorry nowhere is that document does it say anything about 'seperation of church and state'.




Not that I am really religious or I personally agree with this. But the man can make an argument. I would rather see this than some of the crap the sixth district pulls - like not letting teachers use the Constitution as a teaching tool because it mentions god and therefore is religious, not civic or historic.

That's irrelevent. The question is whether or not this judge's actions are appropriate. What some other judge does has nothing to do with this.

ABSOLOUTELY i would! it's nto a question abotu right-wing or left-wing

he is crossing some very dangerous waters, i don't mind if he has a cross on a necklace that he keeps in his shirt while judicating, but he can't have the commandments on his robe during a trial. he could even wear it under his robes, but he still has to maintain the law of the land, and not his personal beliefs

the constitution can't employ anything

it's his district that he is in that employs him, and i don't think judges should be allowed to add things to their robes, sorta like how the soldiers aren't supposed to add things to their uniforms

How nice of you to allow the judge to wear his cross so long as he hides it. Don't ask don't tell policy towards Christianity in civilian life now eh? His robes he can wear what he wants on them end of story. If seeing the ten commandments makes you afraid that is only natural fear of God built into every one of us. Read them and follow them and we'd all be alot better off. By the way our legal system was founded on the ten commandments. Murder is illegal because it is one of the ten commandments. So is adultery, stealing, bearing false witness. I think the judge should mandate a prayer before every session and hold anyone who doesn't participate in contempt of court.
