If SCOTUS candidate Amy Coney Barrett were half the Christian she purports to be, she would withdraw her candidacy and let the nation concern itself with more important measures. What good is a court, if you don’t have a country, a nation. One can be sure, right now our country is on the brink of depths it has never known in history.
This suggestion is what any good Christian would do, following in the steps of Christ and Mathew (14:16–21) “Miraculous feeding of a large crowd.” She is being used as a political football in the self-interest of Republicans.
More importantly, given the unprecedented conditions of the country and a president that is in complete denial of all the science, who would want to enter such an estimable post in life under such dark and toxic clouds of controversy? These are not normal times. Her moral compass must be beyond the present undercurrents of Washington politics. Now that her appointment itinerary has moved ahead the interest of the stimulus package bill that millions of Americans are in desperate need of, deserves a “miraculous feeding of the crowd” reflection, moment and consideration. It deserves a Christian’s conscience, if not comparable action as that of Christ.
