The Christianity-centered jurisprudence that Alito favors is increasingly dominant on the Trump-stacked lower courts, where far-right judges casually cite the Bible in opinions and infuse their rulings with theocratic conceptions of morality. slate.com/news-and-pol...

This is closer to the core of the problem than an unguarded remark by Alito at a conference, isn't it? There ARE some kinds of issues where people are not going to be convinced, and there is no way to compromise, so one side or the other must win. (This should happen peacefully and democratically.)

The Christian right has been plotting to take over the government for decades, and they are now making their move. It’s exasperating that a big segment of the population doesn’t seem to understand this as a fascist Christian theocracy looms straight ahead.
