Bible vs Constitution (Political)
Quote:
On Wednesday, March 1st, 2006, in Annapolis at a
hearing on the proposed Constitutional Amendment to
prohibit gay marriage, Jamie Raskin, professor of law
at AU, was requested to testify.
At the end of his testimony, Republican Senator Nancy
Jacobs said: "Mr. Raskin, my Bible says marriage is
only between a man and a woman. What do you have to
say about that?"
Raskin replied: "Senator, when you took your oath of
office, you placed your hand on the Bible and swore to
uphold the Constitution. You did not place your hand
on the Constitution and swear to uphold
the Bible."
The room erupted into applause.
