Federal Judge Nominee Amy Coney Barrett Appears To Reject Birth Control & Separation Of Church & State

Trump has proposed Amy Coney Barrett who advocates that religious faith triumphs US laws and the Bible takes precedent over the US Constitution as a nominee to the US Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit in Indiana. . 

The Alliance for Justice (AFJ) has released a scathing report asserting that the professor at Notre Dame Law School believes that "Judges should be bound by their religious faith, not the law."

Barrett, who previously clerked for the late US Supreme Court Justice Antoine Scalia, currently serves as the Diane and M.O. Miller II Research Professor of Law at the Notre Dame University Law School. The Indy Star reports:

Barrett teaches and researches federal courts, constitutional law and statutory interpretation — having published articles in the Columbia, Virginia and Texas law reviews.

Before joining the Notre Dame faculty, Barrett clerked for Judge Laurence H. Silberman of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.

Because Coney Barrett has no actual legal experience arguing major cases or writing opinions, affirming the claim that she truly believes that religious beliefs triumphs the Constitution is not easy to validate.

As Bloomberg writes, Trump is definitely shifting the court right.  CRUX,, "devoted to taking the Catholic pulse" reviewed some of the nominee's history in May 2017:

In 2015, ahead of the Ordinary Synod on the Family, she signed a “letter to synod fathers from Catholic women” that upheld Church teaching on marriage, family, and the human person, and decried “ideological colonization.”

“We see the teachings of the Church as truth - a source of authentic freedom, equality, and happiness for women,” the letter stated. “We stand in solidarity with our sisters in the developing world against what Pope Francis has described as ‘forms of ideological colonization which are out to destroy the family’ and which exalt the pursuit of ‘success, riches, and power at all costs’.”

In a 2006 address to law school students, she exhorted them to make it their “life project to know, love, and serve the God who made you.”

Given her own family size of seven children, and reading the statement above, I assume that Amy Coney Barrett is opposed to birth control in America or anywhere in the world.
