The Courts Are God?

With yesterday’s Supreme Court’s two rulings on Ten Commandment’s displays we see the court’s continued efforts to become God.

Does this sound like an extreme statement? Not really. U.S. courts have been ruling in ways in which justices are required to be able to read people’s minds. Something only God can do.

In these recent rulings the court has said that if a Ten Commandments display is placed on public property with religious intentions, it is illegal. If it is placed on public property without religious intent, it is legal. How can intent be truly determined without the ability to read the mind’s of those involved?

We’ve also seen this in “hate crime” legislation. If someone assaults (or in other countries even says something about) another person, and supposedly has certain thoughts in their mind during the assault, then it is a hate crime. But how can anyone, other than God, know what is in another person’s mind? Assault is assault—without regard to who’s involved. It should always be fully investigated; the perpetrator found; and the guilty punished—hopefully in a way that works to prevent future assaults.

In Georgia a school district was required by a court to remove stickers, that stated that evolution is a theory, from a biology book. The court did not dispute the truth of what the stickers said. The court did not find any religious content in the text of the sticker. It was a secular sticker. However, the court said that those who supported placing the sticker in the textbooks did so with a Christian intent. In other words, the court read their minds and did not find a concern about teaching the truth. The judges—acting like God—saw Christian thoughts in their minds. WOW! That’s dangerous--Christians who are interested in the truth being taught in public schools. That’s something the courts think, with their God-like abilities to read minds, must not be allowed.
