Law Is Vulnerable To The Winds Of

In A Constitutional Democracy The Moral Content Of Law Must Be Given By The Morality Of The Framer Or Legislator, Never By The Morality Of The Judge.

Modernity, The Child Of The Enlightenment, Failed When It Became Apparent That The Good Society Cannot Be Achieved By Unaided Reason.

The Judge's Authority Derives Entirely From The Fact That He Is Applying The Law And Not His Personal Values. That Is Why The American Public Accepts The Decisions Of Its Courts, Accepts Even Decisions That Nullify The Laws A Majority Of The Electorate Or Their Representatives Voted For.

As The Courts Keep Pushing Religion Out Of Sight, The Press Either Ignores It Or Treats It As Some Sort Of Emotional Affliction. It Is Hardly Any Wonder That Religion Slowly Loses Its Grip On The Popular Mind.

Being 'at The Mercy Of Legislative Majorities' Is Merely Another Way Of Describing The Basic American Plan: Representative Democracy.
