Zimbler, 

re: "The 'Fear of God'

This may upset some of the forum's Christians, but I'd only employed the phrase as an English idiom without any intended Christian connotations, about as reverential as saying "Sweet Godalmighty!" when checking a hot chick's butt. I admit, I had to burrow through more Bible references than I'd intended to find a NON-Biblical meaning (chiefly because the Bible sites float to the top of Google's output whenever it comes with a reference to the Big Guy).

It means, "to make someone very frightened"

The 'Fear of God'.
A 'Fear of God' is not what is needed in the
Constitution. I find it unlikely that God is
going to come down and smite the charlatans
residing in the halls of government.

No, if there were a 'fear of god' component in
the government . . . the charlatans would proclaim
'Cause God Said So!'

Biggest problem within the islamic world? Far too
many clowns writing religious edicts proclaiming
'God Said to Kill the Infidels' (or words to that
effect.)

Oh, I sincerely agree with you that far too many of
our governmental officials have no concept of what
the Constitution says and means.

But God as an enforcer is not going to cut it.

Zim.
