1. If you exclude foreign laws from our courts...

They should also exclude those really OLD foreign laws from Israel.

You know, the ones in that book that begins with Genesis and ends with Revelations.

If we're going to forbid the US courts from citing foreign law, then that should include ALL foreign law-- including the biblical ones.
