THE retirement of U.S. Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens is critical to all Americans. Though Democrats are hoping for a younger liberal to replace him, conservative Republicans are praying Stevens’ decision will provide President Obama with the opportunity to rethink his personal socialist agenda, to forgo some of his party’s policies and to appoint a strictly constructionalist judge who will help restore to the country and its citizens the nation’s founding Christian principles and values.
Decades of godless Supreme Court decisions have created a culture of death in America that now sanctions and even approves everything from contraception to abortion, homosexual activity, sex outside of marriage, divorce, sterilization, in-vitro fertilization, pornography, embryonic stem cell research, cloning, euthanasia and even false notions of a just war.
Without objective truth responsibility, evil, goodness, and moral judgement lack any clear concept or manageable moral definition. Indeed, for the pragmatist, immoral acts are often falsely elevated to the status of moral virtues under the description of the “right act” – that being the act required to bring about the “perceived” greater good.
In this time of great moral upheaval let us hope that President Obama, despite his communistic tendencies, will be moved by the grace of God – that he will hear the genuine voice of conscience and appoint someone to the Supreme Court worthy of upholding Supreme values.
With respectful and cordial best wishes I remain,
