Related: About this forumRoy Moore: Islam is a 'false religion'
He said, without a hint of irony.

Islam is a "false religion," former Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice and U.S. Senate candidate Roy Moore said Monday during a meeting of the North Jefferson County Republican Club.
..."False religions like Islam, who teach that 'you must worship this way,' are completely opposite with what our First Amendment stands for," Moore told the crowd at Jim 'N Nick's BBQ in Gardendale.

As opposed to Moore's Christianity, of course. Remember, he's the judge who mandated the display of the 10 commandments in his courtroom.
Moore, who was ousted twice from the Alabama Supreme Court -- the most recent instance for issuing an order prohibiting probate judges from issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples --, maintained that his action didn't violate judicial ethics. He also claimed the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling did not make gay marriage legal throughout the country.
"If they can do that, they can make legal (marriage for) a man and five women or a woman and five men," he said. "There's no historical context for two men to get married."

But remember kids, Islam is a "false religion" because it tells people they must behave in a certain way.

less false than another.

All religion is belief. It's a false argument to claim one belief is superior to another, especially as their religious claims cannot be proved by logic, in a courtroom, at a kitchen table.
It's a bogus argument for one religion to claim another is false.

Yes they could, if a case came up with sufficient merit. Glad he understands the to that degree at least.
