OTHER EDITORS On gay marriage Those who have fought in the courts or opined in favor of legalizing gay marriage have frequently likened the resistance of states to their opposition to racial desegregation a couple of generations ago. The comparison isn’t all that apt, even though the areas of greatest resistance have both been in the Deep South. Racial discrimination was not in keeping with the religious underpinnings of the Bible belt or in the democratic principles on which this nation was founded. It was, instead, a willful and shameful repudiation of both. Discomfort with gay marriage, by contrast, is in keeping with thousands of years of Judeo-Christian tradition, not to mention until relatively recently hundreds of years of civil laws. The reaction in Alabama, however, in recent days to a federal court’s lifting of that state’s ban on gay marriage does have uncomfortable echoes to what occurred there in the 1960s, when state govern- ment leaders openly tried to defy the federal courts’ directives to end racially discriminatory laws and practices. Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore, a conserva- tive with a history of thumbing his nose at federal oversight, has led the current defiance. He has directed the state’s probate judges to refuse to issue marriage licenses to gay couples, despite the recent finding of a federal court that held the state’s ban was unconstitutional. Some judges have followed the federal court’s order, others have followed Moore’s. It’s a confusing, chaotic and potentially volatile situation that Moore has created. Although it might be helpful to him politically, it sends the wrong mes- sage to the people of that state and, if it continues, will lead to a face-off that Moore will eventually lose.
