Actually, no I don't. Its one thing for ordinary citizens to defy court orders, its another thing altogether for a State Supreme Court Justice to do so. That sets a despicable precedent against the rule of law, much graver than the actual issue at hand. The Federal Judge needs hold Judge Moore in contempt. If Moore doesn't follow the Judge's order, he should go to prison until such time as he's willing to comply.

Well, I'd agree with you there if this was a final order. But its not -- it's going to be appealed, and he's keeping it there pending appeal. If it becomes final at some point, and he still refuses to remove it, I'd agree.

That is absurd. To follow that thought to its logical, should Congress make a law that encourages murder, theft, perjury (which would then not be murder, theft or perjury)...we should then obey those laws? Or perhaps there's a moral law that takes precedence over "man's" law?

I think you should wait for the case to reach conclusion, before you jump yours.

It's under appeal..

That is the beauty of our justice system. Until all the appeals are over, a judgement is just that a judgement.

How could Judge Moore possibly be found in contempt by refusing to abide by a non-existent law?
(Which is the basis of Judge Thompson's little foray into Constitutional usurpation)
