President Trump nominated Amy Coney Barret to the Supreme Court of America on Saturday. The many pro-life conservatives are extremely excited. I am a pro-life conservative. I want a judge like her who loves America and the Constitution. However, I am sad that she will be unavailable for her seven children. The job that she will most likely have is time-consuming and will keep her away from home a lot.

Yes, I want a pro-life conservative on the Supreme Court. Yes, I am happy that Amy is one, but her children only have one mother. There are many other pro-life conservative judges that would make great Supreme Court judges.

What about Judge Deborah in the Bible? We are told nothing about her age or even if she had children. This was a unique circumstance in the entire Old Testament and was not God’s ideal; for He tells us: “As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths” (Isaiah 3:12). Our God is a Patriarchal God who ordained men to be the ones in authority. This isn’t popular in our day and age but for believers in Jesus Christ, it should be for us.

Amy will hopefully be a wonderful Supreme Court Justice. She is the complete opposite of Ruth Bader Ginsberg which is great, but it’s an indication where our country is headed. She was praised for being the first Supreme Court Justice who had school age children. This grieved me. They will miss her constant influence in their lives, since no on will be able to take her place in their lives. Also, her husband must fill the role of help meet to her instead of her being his help meet.

You guys got another person you like on the court. And then you whine about that person being a woman. Wow. I’m speechless.

Conspiracy theory: Lori Alexander is secretly Ryan Messano in drag and heavy makeup. Good lord, the mind shudders.

I want a judge like her who loves America and the Constitution.

Too bad that’s not what you’re getting. Replace “America” with “the Confederacy” and you’d be closer. Seeing as your “wonderful” judge says the 14th and 15th Amendments are illegitimate…

Dear God that's stupid the constitution made it clear that it can be amended and thusly be apart of the constitution, the founders were flawed certainly but they had the sense to know that they need to have a process to amend the thing should it be necessary

Fortunately, and no matter how hard you pray, it’s not 1776 any more, and women are not considered the property of their husband.

Didn't she say that the SCOTUS rulings aren't legally binding or something?

She could also be removed from the court, & hopefully we can get rid of that drunken rapist as well.

The biblical Deborah was a judge and a prophetess that told Barak that because HE couldn't man up and needed her to go into battle with him, his kill would go insted to a woman. That woman was Yael.

I mean, shit, even I know that her her age and family situation wasn't important enough to be passed down in the original Jewish scriptures.

It IS stupid, but it’s part of the whole “Cult of the Lost Cause” mythology. See, the 14th and 15th amendments were passed with only votes from the Union states (Confederate states had just surrendered, so they didn’t have representatives yet), so in the view of the Confederate states, they’re “illegitimate” because the states never got a chance to reject them (because they were, you know, REBELLING AGAINST THE COUNTRY)…

What you should take from that is that not only is Trump’s new judge a religious wacko, but she’s ALSO a “the South will rise again” Confederacy wacko… And that’s not even getting into her ties to a religious cult that believes women should always be subserviant to men, or her stating in an interview that being a judge is “a step towards my true goal - bringing the Kingdom of Heaven to Earth”…

People say going back to the Stone Age is terrible. But here’s the funny thing, even in hunter-gather societies men weren’t over women nor was it vice versa. This makes them more civilized then sexist fundies.

Also, her husband must fill the role of help meet to her instead of her being his help meet.

No. If you're gonna stick to using your 1611 King James Version, learn your Shakespeare talk! "Help meet" is not a noun.

Well, there goes my appetite.

@ArkBien #58851

I interpreted that as Barak not caring from the onset about glory. He just wanted Sisera gone.

@Lizard_People_Operative: there is a significant chance that Barret personally believes she has to obey her husband. So, in a way, he may be getting a vote on tge Supreme Court.

I think it’s important to remember that the people calling themselves complementarians often vary in what they mean by the whole ‘husband head of the wife thing’.
