Some liberal journalists and politicians are clearly saying
conservative Christians need not apply to serve their country.

Also, after 12 years of Catholic school, I know a thing or
two about demons.

Supreme Court nominee Harriet Miers reminds me of June Cleaver, who
birthed Beaver and Wally in 1960s sitcom land. Standing next to
President Bush, I kept envisioning Harriet holding a tray of cookies
for the president and any senator who might want one.

Now I realize this portrayal of Ms. Miers is immature and possibly
offensive to people who resent this kind of foolishness when
professional women are involved. But trust me, my daydream about
Harriet Miers is not nearly as offensive as what is going on in some
media precincts. Many conservative pundits don't like Harriet because
she's not "right" enough. And some lefties believe she's not qualified
to serve her country because she's a practicing Christian.

Writing in the secular temple that is The New York Times, columnist
Maureen Dowd states: "(President Bush) is asking for a triple leap of
faith. He has faith in Ms. Miers as his lawyer and as a woman who
shares his faith. And we're expected to have faith in his faith and her
faith that could change the balance of the court and affect women's
rights for the next generation."

Of course Ms. Dowd worships at the altar of Roe v. Wade, and any person
who might be pro-life is automatically unsuitable in her mind to hold a
decision-making position.

But the truth is, Harriet Miers has not
publicly stated her position on abortion and probably will never do so.
Thus, Ms. Dowd is objecting to Ms. Miers because she attends an
Evangelical Christian Church in Texas, and we can't have those kinds of
people on the Court, can we?

Some liberal journalists and politicians are clearly saying
conservative Christians need not apply to serve their country.

This, of
course, is outrageous and unconstitutional. If that kind of bias were
directed at any other American group, there would be hell to pay. But
Christians are fair game for media scorn, mockery and dismissal.

A recent Gallup survey puts the number of Americans who call themselves
Christians at 84 percent, and that kind of majority is dangerous to the
goals of the secular-progressive movement. The main opposition to
things like gay marriage, euthanasia, legalized drugs and all kinds of
abortion on demand for any girl or woman are faith-based people who
form judgments about behavior and object to a society that does not.

If
you eliminate people of faith from positions of power in the USA, well,
hello, Holland.

It is worth noting that according to the American Society of Newspaper
Editors, journalists are much less "Christian" than the country as a
whole. A 1997 study says 59 percent of newspaper people call themselves
Catholic or Protestant and 20 percent say they don't believe in God at
all. According to Gallup, just 9 percent of the American population is
atheist or agnostic.

Mark my words, in the weeks to come, you will hear all kinds of
anti-Christian stuff in the media when Harriet Miers is being
discussed. Some of it will be subtle, but not all. This is a
clip-and-save moment. The secular media knows Ms. Miers will be
confirmed to the Supreme Court, but they will get their anti-Christian
digs in during the process.

As a Christian, I have already forgiven my misguided peers for what
they will inevitably do. Also, after 12 years of Catholic school, I
know a thing or two about demons. The demonization of Harriet Miers
will be very instructive to watch. And she looks like such a nice
woman.
