The book is part biography and part explanation of law. The
book is about the perspective of life and beliefs of Roy Moore and
the battle over the 10 Commandments. Reasons and explanations are
given of why Judge Moore did what he did.
The book contains 17 pages of photographs from different years
of Moore's life.
Roy Moore earned an appointment to the U.S. Military Academy
at West Point. During the Vietnam War he served as a Military Police
Company Commander. Soldiers under his command called him "Captain
America". The name of "Captain America" was not necessarily meant as
a compliment, but as a description of Captain Roy Moore who closely
followed military regulations and who promoted discipline in
the ranks.
Concerning the 10 Commandments in the Alabama Supreme Court:
"I knew that this monument would be difficult for them to
understand," he wrote. "And I wondered if I could stand the pressure
of being sued and how my fellow justices would react to such a
situation."
As Circuit Judge in Etowah County, one of his first acts was
to make a small wooden plaque of the 10 Commandments that was
displayed in his courtroom. Concerning the 10 Commandments in the
Etowah County Courtroom, "I knew there would be political and
spiritual consequences," "On the other hand, I reasoned what a
hypocrite I would be if I failed to acknowledge the God who was
responsible for my new job."
In the book, Judge Moore quotes extensively from historical
documents and figures, such as Thomas Jefferson and James Madison,
which he uses to prove his position.
During Roy Moore's early life, his father moved the family
around following after construction work. Durng early childhood, the
family spent several years in Texas. In the first and second grades,
Roy Moore changed schools 6 times.
The family moved back to rural Alabama and did some farming.
"We plowed with mules. Cut wood with a crosscut saw." When Roy Moore
was in high school, the family did not have an indoor toilet. To
earn pay for food in high school, Roy Moore spent time cleaning
tables. His classmates admired him and elected him president of the
student body.
In the ninth grade, Roy Moore saw a movie about the United
States Military Academy. "It just aroused something in me." He set a
goal for an appointment to West Point. His parents encouraged him,
he worked diligently on his studies, and prayed for a miracle. The
miracle happened and the appointment to West Point became reality.
"I remember very distinctly my daddy hocking his toolbox to get the
$300 to get me physically to the academy," Moore said.
Roy Moore's father was a very hard working man, who would give
the shirt off his back to help others. He was a firm believer in
Jesus Christ, and was a role model to his family of his faith in
Christianity.
Judge Moore believes the greatest problems in America, are
caused by judicial activism caused by the courts. The problem is the
courts, and that's why this Constitution Restoration Act is the
solution. To remedy the problem, Judge Moore and his legal team put
together the "Constitution Restoration
Act. A bill which would restrict the courts through the
authorization of Article III of the
Constitution. Congress is clearly given the power to restrict
the jurisdiction of the federal courts. Using the authority of
Article III, this bill would restrict the power of federal courts to
weigh in religious-expression cases like his. Judge Moore testified
before Congress in September, 2004, and explained the Constitutional
background of the act. For more information visit
