I agree there are cases where civil disobedience is justified. The problem I have here is that we are dealing with the Chief Justice of a state. What is he going to tell his trial court judges when people start disobeying their orders citing their own Chief's behavior? If he has reached the point where he can no longer in good faith obey the law and fulfill his oath of office then he can no longer in good faith fulfill his office and should resign.

You would think that would be obvious to all, including Judge Moore.

I don't agree with the Judge that this is one of those issues which require disbedience. If a life was at stake or some other imminent danger then the story would be different. Heck, God took his sweet time before giving his people these commandments, a few months wait wouldn't matter.
