Huffington PostAlabama Chief Justice Tom Parker, who wrote the concurring opinion in last weeks explosive Alabama Supreme Court ruling that frozen embryos have the same rights as living children, recently appeared on a show hosted by self-anointed prophet and QAnon conspiracy theorist.
Parker was the featured guest on Someone You Should Know, hosted by Johnny Enlow, a Christian nationalist influencer and devoted supporter of former President Donald Trump. Over the course of an 11-minute interview, Parker articulated a theocratic worldview at odds with a functioning, pluralistic society.
God created government, he told Enlow, adding that its heartbreaking that we have let it go into the possession of others.

Where did God lose possession of government? If He is all powerful and all knowing, how did this theft happen? Modern nation States sprung from theories sprouted during the Renaissance and the Enlightenment. Doesn't sound very God-incubated any more than a test-tube is a human being.

Chief Justice Parker graduated cum laude from Dartmouth College, in Hanover, New Hampshire, and received his Juris Doctorate from Vanderbilt University School of Law, in Nashville, Tennessee. He won a Rotary International Fellowship to study law at the University of São Paulo School of Law, in São Paulo, Brazil, where he was the first foreign student in Brazil's most prestigious law school.
