Judicial Activisim
Each time I hear or read about yet another claim of "Judicial Activisim", I have to laugh as Judges interpret the law, not legislate. This seems to be a very difficult concept for fundamentalists/evangelicals to grasp in contrast to anyone else who doesn't have any problem with the concept.
The whining is pretty much along the ideology lines for fundies since they either failed in civics or skipped class those days when the three branches of government and the separation of powers were taught to the students in attendance.
During that class they would have learned what I wrote in the first sentence and that would alleviate the need to complain about something they tried to force upon the citizens of their state and stopped. it would be an exceptional day if the court would simply say "this law is nothing but religious ideology and it is Unconstitutional, so, all you fundies and evangelicalistas stop trying to convert everyone". Yes it would be a very great day to finally get that handeddown and then they would be made to stop with their constant stupidity.
Far too often we see the cry of the judges are ruling outside their areas, they went too far, etc.. When it is nothing more than another upset fundie whining that their ridiculous ideology based argument was tossed out as it had no possible merit or validity before the court to begin with.
On forums posts that prove their ideology based rhetoric is incorrect, ill conceived or just plain wrong often results with any responses that help point this out or even any response to their rhetoric is also vunerable to deletion. It can almost be guarranteed that any posts that list accurate historical facts about the Bible, Jesus, Apostles, etc., is most asuredly doomed to deletion if it mentions that they were men, written after the events happened, ( which it would have to be if it talks about the event in past tense!) and/or happens to contain any reference to reality based connections and how the historical accuracy of the writers were off.
There is of course much more to cover on this but for now this will do nicely.
