One cannot help wondering how an Epispocal vicar can also be a judge. Surely there must be some aspect of Episcopalianism in conflict with the Separation of Church and State

I'm not sure I've ever met anyone more capable of understanding that separation.

Peter: At present a fierce debate is underway in the highest tribunal of a religion that shall stand nameless out of Political Correctness as to whether a certain judge of a high court that shall remain unidentified for the very same reason, should not allow his religion to affect his interpretation of a significant document regarding the relationship between Church and State but which I dare not identify for fear of being accused of religious bigotry

But if we are we running the risk of PI by introducing a political issue. please accept in advance our abject apologies and feel free to delete this entire thread so as not to offend the PC

I have no idea what you were saying there, DaleH. Is this something happening in the U.S. that most folks are aware of there?

Since I don't know what you are referring to, can somebody who knows let us know if a breakdown of the facts, without any commentary as to the rightness or wrongness of them, is suitable for this forum.

It is isn't, then we shouldn't expand on it.

DaleH, who's Peter?

Now where's that "embarrassed" emoticon. Ah, voilą.

Re: inselpeter Ya, that's pretty evident. Funny eh, how you get used to calling somebody something after a few years and you don't think of them under another name.

It has been decided, Belmarduke, in the interest of the civil continuation of the nature of this forum of words, that certain words are taboo. And certain subjects are taboo. It is thought that the people who post here can't be trusted to objectively discusss current events or religion without causing trouble.

They love this board.

DH:

A) Well, if you don't want to post it, send me a PM. As a matter of principle, the notion is hooey, imho.

B) MY NAME AIN'T PETER! he said sacharenely.
