ENOUGH
Washington, DC, 4-8
– Long concerned about the inroads of judicial tyranny
which now threatened to wreak havoc on the Constitution
itself, Rick Scarborough sent out a call to all who felt as he
did. He urged them to come to the nation’s capital for an
emergency conference, hosted by the Judeo -Christian Council
for Constitutional Restoration.
Alarmed that our highest
courts were beginning to accept the findings of courts in
foreign lands as legal precedents, and that a number of our
ranking judges now claimed the Constitution was a living,
evolving entity (therefore subject to whatever interpretation
they might choose to apply to it), more than two hundred
responded.
So urgent was the need felt,
that all speakers and panelists waived honoraria and paid
their own way to be there. Keynoters included Chief Justice
Roy Moore who had been removed from the Alabama bench
for refusing to remove the Ten Commandments from his
courtroom. He issued a stirring wake-up call to any who did
not realize we were in danger of losing the very foundation on
which this republic stood.
Attorney David Gibbs, who
represented Terri Schiavo’s parents in their futile struggle
to save their daughter’s life, gave a stunning report of just
how alive and fully cognizant Terri was, when her feeding tube
was ordered removed and her parents were forbidden to give her even
|
a sip of water.
Alan Keyes was never more
articulate, as he traced the precipitous decline of family
values in America, and pointed out that the national election
had only made the other side more resolute in their
determination to achieve their agenda through locking in their
control of the judiciary at every level.
Everyone sensed the presence
of God in their midst. Not since the end of the Cold War had
so many conservatives of all stripes gathered in common
concern. And perhaps the greatest achievement of the
conference was the overcoming of any lingering apathy – that
the cause was already lost. Nothing could be further from the
truth.
At the end of the
conference, those present went forward to sign an appeal to
Congress to restore the judiciary to what it had always been,
one of the three equal pillars on which the nation had been
erected.
Bottom line? The greatest weapon we have is prayer. But our
prayer for the restoration of the judiciary needs to be
focused and informed. We need to know the other side’s
strategy and latest initiatives. For a quick primer – and a
more detailed analysis of what the conference accomplished,
and how we might most effectively pray-go-to www.stopactivistjudges.org.
