A judge's robe

[Mister Emu]

1. I thought it was a she.

2. Perhaps, just perhaps this person is expressing their impartiality by anouncing that they believe they will have a higher power to come face to face with after death, and this person does not want to have any injustices on their head?

The judge's secretary was a she.

I suspect you're a hopeless optimist, Mr. Emu. But I really like the way you try to find good in people, such as trying to find good in this judge.

Ok, the name Ashely got me I guess, I've never thought of it as a male name

I would rather be an optimist than a pessimist :woohoo:

 

[Runt]

I wonder... if I ever had to go before this judge, would I be given a fair trial if I wore, say, a blouse with the words of the Wiccan Rede embroidered upon it?

 

[No*s]

But it certainly wouldn't be good for Muslims and Atheists in his court. If I was a defendant, I could not ask that he take off the robe and expect impartial rulings

That is exactly why I feel it is a sad situation...

Ya mean to say, Isis-Astoroth, that it just doesn't give you a warm and fuzzy feeling all over to see a law judge embroider his robe with the Ten Commandments? Maybe if he had also embroidered his robe with the Biblical punnishments, such as stoning someone to death, you'd come around and see just how beautiful it is to follow our most ancient traditions when it comes to the law?

Your sarcasm aside, it isn't my ancient tradition.
