Whether one likes Scalia or not, to suggest that he is an idiot reflects
only on the mental incompetence of his accuser.

There are lots of people with admirable IQs who are still idiots,
Fester. If you dismiss rational thought in favor of your favorite
bed-time story, because it makes you feel warm and fuzzy, you're an
idiot.

I see. So when you say, "idiot," you don't mean someone of low
intelligence, you mean something different, like I don't agree with him. I
guess that Sharpton must be a genius in your book.

He (probably) means someone who goes with his prejudices in making
decisions instead of using reason. You have to admit a lot of people
do. Despite a good IQ or education.

I don't see where you can deduce any of that from what I wrote. What
does my opinion of Scalia have to do with Sharpton (and BTW, in my
book, Sharpton is an ***** and an idiot as well)?
A person can be highly intelligent, like Hitler or Stalin, and still
espouse idiotic beliefs, like Stalinism and Nazism. This should be
pretty obvious. Scalia's fanatical embrace of Catholicism, and his
warped interpretations of the Constitution and other efforts to distort
reality to fit that belief, are what renders him an idiot.

Neither Stalinism nor Nazism were idiotic. They were certainly cynical,
unjust and morally bankrupt, but were ingenious tools/justifications to
subjugate and/or motivate the public to do the bidding of the rulers. As
for Scalia's view of the Constitution, no other justice in our time has
shown more fidelity to the language and historical context of that document
when rendering his decisions. One may disagree or argue, but I'll repeat
that to question his intelligence is a reflection only on his accuser's
mental capacity.
As did his statement severeal years ago that evolution was an attempt
to exclude God.
Cite? In a sense, one could say he was correct. All science is an attempt
to replace or exclude superstition from our description of the natural
world. So , yes, evolution is an attempt to exclude magic as from our
understanding of the world.

Do we have to chose? If this guy thinks the Jews are safer under
Christianity--especially Catholicism--he is either seriously

In one of the creationist lawsuits he described evolution as an
