Remember what the Bible says: “Woe to those who call evil good.” They always do that in one form or another whether it is Communism, Nazism, Islam or any other ideology.

In Fact, Judge Moore upheld Alabama State law, to whit...

Alabama high court’s decision criticized the U.S. Supreme Court’s creation of same-sex marriage as “lawless” and left undisturbed its determination dating back to 2015 that the state’s Sanctity of Marriage Amendment and Marriage Protection Act, limiting marriage to one man and one woman, are constitutional and binding.

Liberty Counsel explained that on March 3, 2015, months before the U.S. Supreme Court narrowly established same-sex marriage, the Alabama Supreme Court issued a 135-page order upholding the state’s marriage laws and ordering certain named probate judges to stop issuing licenses to same-sex couples.

Then, Probate Judge Don Davis asked to be relieved of the order because it contradicted a federal court order that demanded the state establish same-sex marriage. On March 10, 2015, the state Supreme Court rejected the petition.

On March 12, the state court issued yet another order that “all probate judges” were included in the March 3 order.

Then just weeks ago other petitions related to the case were dismissed, but the underlying orders were affirmed in a certificate of judgment that got far less publicity than the order for dismissals.

In fact, Chief Justice Roy Moore wrote at the time: “Today this court by order dismisses all pending motions and petitions and issues the certificate of judgment in this case. That action does not disturb the existing March orders in this case or the court’s holding therein that the Sanctity of Marriage Amendment, art. I, § 36.03, Ala. Const. 1901, and the Alabama Marriage Protection Act, § 30-1-9, Ala. Code 1975, are constitutional. Therefore, and for the reasons stated below, I concur with the order.”
