I'll disagree on this point.

I'm not saying a judge should be fluent in all science, but if someone is a literal interpreter of the bible it would HAVE to affect their daily decisions including ones on the bench.  

That is not something I necessarily want anymore than someone making decisions based on any other holy book literally.

And, of course, that doesn't mean he made bad decisions because of his religious beliefs...just that it would have to be part of his decision making.
