Homegrown Fascists, Fearful Of Faith

[PoliticalChic]

Their warcry: no expression of faith will be allowed. That's Democrats,Liberals, Progressives.


1. No matter the indoctrination, we must never forget who we, Americans, are:
Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.
John Adams


2. "Meet the Coach Who’s Fighting for Freedom to Pray
BREMERTON, Washington—It’s the final play of coach Joe Kennedy’s seven-year legal battle.

The Supreme Court will hear oral arguments Monday in Kennedy’s case, and ultimately decide whether a public school employee is allowed to participate in silent prayer in view of students while on the clock.

...lost his job as an assistant football coach at a high school in Washington state after taking a knee in silent prayer on the 50-yard line after games. From the time he began coaching in 2008 at Bremerton High School, about 30 miles west of Seattle, Kennedy made it his practice to thank God after every game.

....players became curious about what Kennedy was doing at the end of every game, and some asked whether they could join him.

“This is a free country, it’s America, you can do whatever you want to do,” Kennedy remembers telling his players."

“The only thing I'm asking the Supreme Court is that I get to be a coach, and I get to thank God afterwards,” Joe Kennedy says.

3. “The power to assert that the Constitution prohibits any policy choice of which they disapprove has enabled the justices to make themselves the final lawmakers on any public policy issue that they choose to remove from the ordinary political process and to assign for decision to themselves.

…the Court now performs in the American system of government a role similar to that performed by the Grand Council of Ayatollahs in the Iranian system: voting takes place and representatives of the people are elected as lawmakers, but the decisions they reach on basic issues of social policy are permitted to prevail only so long as they are not disallowed by the system’s highest authority. The major difference is that the ayatollahs act as a conservative force, while the effect of the Supreme Court’s interventions is almost always—as on every one of the issues just mentioned—to challenge, reverse, and overthrow traditional American practices and values.”

Remember, these are the same people who only accept public utterance of the word "god" if it's followed by "damn America".

 

[PoliticalChic]

4. This may be too nuanced for Democrats reading along, but there is a lower-case 'god' that they worship.....

There are two religions in conflict.

That of the Founders, the Judeo-Christian faith.
The Bible is its foundation.


And that of Democrats, Liberals, Communists, Nazis, Fascists.....Militant Secularism. Lacking self-awareness, the Democrats, Liberals, Progressives ridicule religion as superstition......but kneel to their false religion, Militant Secularism.



While the religion of the Founders forbids no religous worship.....fear of faith dooms the former when Democrats/Progressives/Liberals have control.




Who is being hurt when Coach Kennedy silently kneels and prays?

 

[johngaltshrugged]

Faith, family, friends & firearms. Each of these give a population either the strength or the knowledge to resist the tyranny of collectivism & therefore must be destroyed for the progressive fascists to achieve their goals. Together, they form a bond that can't be broken by the anti-liberty NWO & their "reset"
They have been at war against each of these F's in one way or another for decades

Wow, you are all over the place on this one. That coach has, and had, every right in the world to pray at midfield. . Before the game, after the game, during the game. What he cannot do, as a state employee on state property, is engage in a full blown "circus", as that midfield prayer morphed into. Matter of fact, the coach was told to stop those meetings at midfield, and he did. After the team cleared the field and he met with them in the locker room he came back to midfield, alone, and prayed. It just didn't feel the same to him. Yet his lawyers today will argue in court that it is the same.

Now, what you want the SCOTUS to do here is overturn lower court rulings. They may very well do that, the fact that they are hearing the case points to that decision. They will overturn those lower court rulings using a process called judicial review. But you have attached a white paper by Lino Graglia, who was one of the most conservative legal academics in the nation. He believed that judicial review, which has been around since Marbury v. Madison, should be eliminated. Your two links are contradicting one another.

I have to ask, did Graglia not read any of the Federalist papers, or did he just skip 51? Giving Congress the last word on constitutional interpretation is in direct conflict with the principal of separation of powers. Here is the deal, you people on the right bitch and moan about the judiciary when it rules against your beliefs. But then you applaud them, hold them up as heroes, and work diligently to "seed" the courts with judges willing to support your agenda. This case is a bellwether case, reversing the lower court rulings will be judicial activism on a scale not seen since Heller. Graglia would be appalled.

Sone people pray quietly

5. This is what the Militant Secularists are running on:
The Democrat Party is now running on full-blown anti-white racism,

socialism,

infanticide,

opposition to free speech,

standing with criminals and felons rather than law-abiding citizens

substituting illegal alien voters for the American citizenry,

support for rioters, arsonists, murderers, and anarchists,

accepting payment from Communist China for future considerations,

and anti-Semitism… the knuckle-dragging, atavistic pagan party.


Democrats share much with their predecessors:
"Christianity had declined severely in Germany at the time the Nazis came to power, which is why the Nazis were able to come to power. In his book, The Dictators, Richard Overy states that in the decades preceding the First World War Germany was becoming increasingly secular, and that after that war, from 1918 to 1931, 2.4 million Evangelical Christians formally renounced their faith as well as almost half a million Catholics. In Prussia, only 21% of the population took communion and in Hamburg only five percent of the population took communion. Before Hitler, German religious leaders were publicly condemning the rise of moral relativism and decline of traditional religious values.

Weimar Germany largely had abandoned Christianity and increasingly was embracing hedonism, Marxism and paganism."

What is that unbearable smell.......????


Oh....it's you.


The scummy low-life liar that I exposes as follows: you wrote this-

"And there it is, you just revealed yourself a liar. A couple of years ago you claimed a degree from Brown." When You Are Missing The Ability To Learn.... post 48



You lied and I caught you in the lie.

I never said any such thing. There has never been any such claim by me.


I challenged you to prove it....and you simply slitered away.


There is a search function and you and anyone else can use it.

And there will be no such statement by me.

Because you are a low-life lying scum.



Are you ready to admit that you are lying scum and I never made the statement you just claimed I made?

Proven by the fact that no such statement exists.


And you will never be allowed to forget what a sack of offal you are.

The problem was not the coach praying.

The issue was turning it into a spectacle…

Did you bother researching the case?

 

[PoliticalChic]

6. The courts have been infested by Progressives who will not abide by the values and heritage of this once great nation.


“ The Court has become the “ultimate law-giver on most of the basic issues of domestic social policy,” and these are the “issues that determine the basic values, nature, and quality of a society.” Racial and gender equality are denied by decisions favoring affirmative action and group identity while an egregiously broad scope for personal autonomy undercuts legitimate community desires for a degree of order and morality.

The undercutting takes several forms: the creation of unjustified restraints on the criminal justice system that make policing, prosecution, and punishment difficult, often inordinately delayed, and sometimes impossible; disapproval of laws reinforcing morality, particularly in sexual matters, to the detriment of marriage, families, and the traditional moral order; virulent antagonism to public displays of religion; and, in a stunning inversion of the First Amendment’s guarantee of freedom of speech, protection of the worst forms of pornography and vulgarity but approval of even prior restraints on political speech, historically the heart of the Amendment. Graglia’s comprehensive indictment is entirely justified.
The contest is one between democracy and oligarchy, and for half a century the oligarchs have been winning.”
Bork, “A Country I Do Not Recognize”

 

[Jets]

He's sued the Bremerton School District alleging they violated his First Amendment rights by telling him he couldn't pray at midfield, The Times reported.

The AP reported that lawyers for the school district argued there was no issue if Kennedy prayed alone and separately from students or if he came back after students left to pray on the field, but that praying immediately following the game could appear to be a government endorsement of religion.

The Supreme Court will hear arguments in the case of a high school football coach who was placed on leave for praying after games

Joe Kennedy would pray at the midfield line following games and would sometimes be joined by students and observers.

Would you hold the same view if after every game he sacrificed a chicken to honor his god? After all, how one honors god is a matter of personal choice. And if you advocate for allowing public display by employees.

Who went to Brown then? And Yale, who went to Yale? And I don't know what you majored in at Columbia, but seems to me someone with an Ivy education would know a little something about the separation of powers. They most certainly know the two links in your OP are contradictory.

The reality is you are uninformed concerning this case. It flagged on one of your favorite propaganda sites and you copied and pasted, yeah, I said it, without an intuitive understanding. Asking who was harmed is indicative of that uninformed part. I mean midfield was mobbed as this coach made appearances in the media. Cheerleaders and band members were knocked down, and a state representative placed his hand on the coach's shoulder as he kneeled to pray, surrounding by his poor players--indicated by the Amicus Brief I posted and you didn't read.

Actually, a group of Satanist showed up demanding their time at midfield during the height of this fiasco.

7. "The Supreme Court is “deciding a very narrow question, which is whether or not [a football coach] can be fired from their job if [he] engages in a private prayer on one knee at the 50-yard line,” Jeremy Dys, an attorney for First Liberty, told The Daily Signal.

“Kennedy did not surrender his First Amendment rights at the schoolhouse gate,” Sarah Parshall Perry, a legal fellow at The Heritage Foundation, said. “The Supreme Court has continuously reaffirmed that principle since its 1969 decision, Tinker v. Des Moines.”

8. Nor are the Fascists.....er, Democrats,.....shy about breaking the law of the land, the Constitution:

Under Democrat/Liberal LBJ, the law was passed that deprived pastors 2of their right of free speech.
What possible compelling government interest could this represent????

“The 1954 federal Johnson Amendment prohibits a pastor from talking about candidates from the pulpit in light of Scripture. Thus, based on what a pastor says about an election from the pulpit, the tax code allows the government to tax a church. Consider that in light of the Internal Revenue Service's increasingly vague regulations, and you have a recipe for the censorship of religion. The IRS, through those vague regulations, reserves for itself tremendous discretion and power to decide which churches to punish for violations of the Johnson Amendment and which not to punish.”
Why don't churches pay taxes?


Any reading of the first amendment will prove this to be unconstitutional.

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.



Another reason the Fascists hate Trump:

"My Administration is also defending religious liberty, and that includes the Constitutional right to pray in public schools. In America, we do not punish prayer. We do not tear down crosses. We do not ban symbols of faith. We do not muzzle preachers and pastors. In America, we celebrate faith. We cherish religion. We lift our voices in prayer, and we raise our sights to the Glory of God!"
