IGNORANCE ISN'T BLISS

It's kind of scary when a public official like Alabama chief Justice Roy Moore displays such profound ignorance of other religions.

Buddhists have never claimed that the Buddha was the Creator. No Muslim has ever claimed that the prophet Mohammad was the Creator. And overlooks that Jews, Christians and Muslims all claim to worship the same God. The names are different but the God is the same.

According to the article Moore spoke to this group last Fall, but the recording of the speech is finally getting public viewing and sparking criticism and leaving the rest of us wondering if the justice is quite sane. He was previously known for putting up a monument to the ten commandments on public property.

He has also been quoted as saying that state officials are not bound by the federal constitution even though under Article 6 of said constitution he had to swear an oath to uphold and protect the constitution of the US.

He obviously has a problem with that.
