I agree. It's over, and Justice Moore lost. As a Chief Justice of a state supreme court, he should re-affirm the rule of law

Obedience to unconstitutional rulings or laws is repugnent to the Constitution.

What is unconstitutional about this particular ruling?

The Supreme Court determines what is and isn't constitutional (see Marbury v. Madison). Congress writes the laws, the SCOTUS interprets them, the Pres. enforces them.

Ignoring the workings of our system is repugnant to the Constitution.
