"On a scale of one to ten, how faithful would you say you are?"

A question from Lindsay Graham to Kitanji Brown Jackson.

Are any Christians cheering this sort of thing on?

Religion and politics, like cyanide and baby food.

At least our founders saw the folly of allowing a state religion.

Thank you, James Madison.

I'm curious how Graham would answer his own question.

And I wonder how Graham would've reacted if Jackson had immediately answered 10.

In a way, Graham did. He said he "only goes to church three times a year" which speaks volumes about how shallow his notion of faith is. It reminds me of PB1022/Romans1009 pressing me to tell him how often I went to church and how many sermons had I heard in his efforts to "prove" I was never a Christian.

For all intents and purposes, Graham's question was not about Jackson's faith. He was teeing up his own subsequent comment about how Amy Coney Barrett was treated when she was being vetted.

She was nominated for one reason and one reason only.

Okay, maybe two reasons.

Yes, I too can think of two reasons why Amy Coney Barrett was nominated and appointed [and I don't think her intention to strike down Roe v Wade was the less important of the two]. She wasn't appointed because she was an experienced judge, because that was not the case. That aside, Graham's supposed "question" for Jackson was not about Jackson, it was about how Amy Coney Barrett's faith was turned into an issue in 2020.

Duh! I mean... I [DO] think her intention to strike down Roe v Wade was the less important of the two

I always found Graham a spineless phony.
