"Great respect, it seems to me, has to be given to people who resign rather than do something they view as morally wrong, in order to make a point."

I do recall Dietrich Bonhoeffer took a decidedly different approach in that he saw a moral, as well as Biblical, justifications to participate in murder plots against Hitler

Many of the Jews unwittingly 'resigned' themselves to their fate as they did not believe what was occurring would lead to where it did.

Sorry Kennedy, resigning is not an option.

So...is Kennedy implying that today’s judiciary and federal government are like Hitler?

Judges without convictions should resign too. That wouldn’t include Kennedy.

"How many judges, do you think, resigned in the Third Reich?" Kennedy asked, to the response of silence in the great hall. He answered his own question by raising three fingers.

Apparently there weren't many Christians in Germany before the war. I don't think there are many there now, either.

Now, notice that in the entire US, only Kim Davis refused to violate her Christian conscience. Thats one out of, how many? That is a depressing figure.

Moral imbeciles issue their decrees, and the vast unwashed multitudes shrug and obey.

How about Democrats that are for open borders? They openly refuse to obey America’s immigration laws.

Democrats are allowed to follow their convictions, but Christians aren’t?

Maybe Christians just believe the United States’ Marriage laws are broken.

I once heard Chuck Colson call Kennedy the most dangerous man in America. This demonstrates what he meant.

Hey Kennedy, the law in Kentucky, as passed by their duly elected representatives, was that marriage was between a man and a woman.

What you’re talking about is not the rule of law, but a tyrannical fiat from a judicial oligarchy.

We need to fight the judicial tyranny in this country as much as we fight the executive tyranny.

No problem. People in public opposed to the 2nd amendment should likewise quit as it is beyond mere law. It’s a right.

“Separation of church and state” is IS NOT IN THE CONSTITUTION.

“Congress shall make NO LAW respecting the establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof” (1st Amendment) IS IN the Constitution.

The feds are prohibited from interfering with religion including establishing a state church. Free exercise of religion is NOT to be prohibited inside or outside government. The prohibition is EXCLUSIVELY on the FEDS NOT RELIGIOUS EXERCISE inside or outside government.

The monuments and carvings all over Washington D.C. and around the state buildings country testify against the heresy and unconstitutional doctrine of “separation of church and state’ which was spawned in hell. Those who advocate such, like Kennedy here, are running hell’s errands.

There should have been a revolution before Hitler went too far. A rebellion like that wouldn’t work out well for foolish judges.

that if a public official has a moral objection to homosexuality, he must either follow the law or quit public service.

Does that apply to laws like the Defense of Marriage Act and public officials like judges?

I would welcome to see Kennedy convicted. That would get him off SCOTUS.

;)

So, what he’s saying is that Obama is Hitler, and that when he (Kennedy) wrote that decision he became one of Hitler’s enablers.

I don’t think Roberts is dumb. He couldn’t have said anything that stupid by accident. We all know, or are 99% certain, that he wrote that decision because he was blackmailed into it, presumably with the threat to take away his adopted Irish children.

The Nuremberg Trials found that it’s not enough to say you are bound to follow the laws, no matter what. Not when the laws in question and the people who make them are just plain evil.

How about those who are both morally and religiously opposed to the second amendment? Should they resign too?

Kennedy is drawing similarites to the horrors of Nazi Germany to the horrors of Obama’s America.

“If you don’t like homosexual marriages or killing Jews, then you should resign!”

This man is one depraved POS.

What is the law, here, is still very much in dispute. The Supreme Court ruling was the case law, as applicable to that case. It will doubtless be used as a precedent for a time, in other cases; but it is not the "law," in the sense the context here would imply.

Can the Court turn the sun into the moon, simply by decreeing that it is so? That basically is the ultimate question. The whole concept of marriage has to do with the multi-generational pursuits of a social order to sanctify procreation; to build and protect the status of family continuity. Obviously, seen from that obvious basis, the very concept of "same-sex" marriage is an oxymoron.

Perhaps Justice Kennedy would have been better advised--if he cares about his reputation--to have left his sanctimony in his office at the Court.

The same way it is going to end here. With the total destruction of the United States, as with Germany. When it will happen, I can’t day. Different poisons work at different speeds.

Most of them wound up dangling from a length of piano wire around their necks or on a guillotine!
