Yes, Believers And Non-believers And Skeptics Can All Live Together And Get Along. But There Cannot Be An Imperialistic Imposition Of Religion By The State Or By The Church. All People Must Be Equal--believers, Skeptics, Disbelievers, Atheists, And Those Who Chose Religion. Unless We Are All Deemed Equal, And Unless The Morality Of Disbelief Is Deemed The Equivalent Of The Morality Of Belief, We Will Simply Be Tolerated, And That Is Not The American Way.

Law Is An Imperfect Profession In Which Success Can Rarely Be Achieved Without Some Sacrifice Of Principle. Thus All Practicing Lawyers -- And Most Others In The Profession -- Will Necessarily Be Imperfect, Especially In The Eyes Of Young Idealists. There Is No Perfect Justice, Just As There Is No Absolute In Ethics. But There Is Perfect Injustice, And We Know It When We See It.
