Actually, the inventer of Christian Reconstructionism (and founder and first head of its chief organization, the Chalcedon Foundation), the not-so-sadly late Rousas John “R. J.” Rushdoony, was interviewed on the radio (I think by David Frost), and in that interview he made it quite plain that he wanted the entire Mosiac Law to become the law of the land. The interviewer asked him about Deuteronomy 21:18–21 which mandates capital punishment for a child who stubbornly disobeyed either parent, and Rushdoony actually tried to justify that, yes, that, too, should be the law of the land.
SherlockWatson, a fellow fan of Sergio Aragonés, I see… ;-)
This gag is very similar to one that Sergio drew decades ago in a Mad Magazine margin. Bully kicks kid’s small snowman, only to find that it’s built around a fire hydrant.
