Justice Scalia and Ignorance
From the above article:
" . . . If I have brought any message today, it is this: Have the courage to have your wisdom regarded as stupidity. Be fools for Christ. And have the courage to suffer the contempt of the sophisticated world."
Wonderful. I sure wouldn't want the head of any Supreme Court of mine to have anything to do with that fancy, store-bought "sophisticated world."
And, yes I know the "be fools for Christ" bit is a Pauline exhortation used in context; that only makes it worse.
