VOICE: Roy Moore, where the phrase "Christian conservative" doesn't even begin to describe him could very well be your next US senator. If you don't understand just how freaked out some folks in the G.O.P. and the White House are about what that means, then you don't know Roy Moore. First off, he doesn't appear to believe in the Constitution, as it's written.

VOICE: Our rights don't come from government. They don't come from a Bill of Rights. They come from Almighty God.

VOICE: Now, that's just a taste of what are very fundamentalist views that have gotten him removed from office twice as Alabama's chief justice.

GLENN: So I want you to understand: First of all, this is from Meet the Press. This is Chuck Todd. This is not just something that he's just saying. This is something that has been written, put in a teleprompter. Producers have read. Writers have read. Researchers have read. And nobody thought to stop Chuck Todd from making a huge error.

Chuck, you're smarter than this. I don't know how you've been misled. But you are completely wrong. If our rights come from the government, our Founders knew, then our rights could be taken away.

The entire Bill of Rights structure, the amendments to the Constitution are to say, there are many rights out there that come from God. There are many rights that people have. And these are the rights that this the government can never, ever violate.

That's the premise behind the Bill of Rights. It's not saying that the government issues these rights. It's saying these rights belong to the people. And the government can never, ever, ever violate them.

Now, I don't know how this has become a religious fundamental kind of issue. As you call somebody who holds those views a -- a religious fundamentalist, who should be feared, let me share with you the audio of another quote, I guess you would call, religious fundamentalist who explained these rights.

VOICE: For I have brought before you and Almighty God the same solemn oath our forbearers prescribed nearly a century and three-quarters ago.

And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forbearers fought are still at issue around the globe. The belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God.
