Justice Sunday III has been moved from its original date of Dec. 4 to Jan. 8, the day before the Alito hearings are scheduled to begin. The event will be held at an African-American megachurch in Philadelphia.
For those not aware, Justice Sunday is now a permanent piece of the religious right's arsenal in their war on the separation of church and state. Combining their access to elite politicians and their vast media network, Justice Sunday's bring together a sampling of the religious right and congressional leaders like Sen. Bill Frist and Tom Delay, and call for Christian Americans to both pray and act to support judicial causes: the first regarded the nuclear option and the second called for support of conservative nominees to the court.
