Yitzchok, it was the federal courts ordering the removal of the Ten Commandments from Judge Moore’s court (remember that SCOTUS has the Ten Commandments in their courtroom) and the court ordered legalization of toeiva marriage that was a matter of the liberal courts acting in an activist capacity by those higher judges, in lieu of the legislature that has the proper constitutional authority to enact laws — not the judges in robes that were creating new laws that they preferred rather than enforcing the actual laws that the Constitution reads. Judge Moore was, in fact, acting in sound recognition that the Constitution permits the Ten Commandments (note the number of religious paraphernalia the founding fathers put in government) and doesn’t require states to legalize toeiva.
It is true that state judges must honor federal court rulings even when the federal court acted outside the law but under the flag of the law in pushing their activist agenda. But as a matter of principle and sound legal judgement, Judge Moore was on solid ground regarding the underlying Constitutional issues.
