Abstract
This short essay offers a critical view of the decision in Obergefell v. Hodges and the marriage debate more generally, considering philosophical, academic, and spiritual positions of the legal scholar of faith in light of the jurisprudence of Obergefell. The unspoken consequences of this ruling compels state and individual submission to a doctrine that, according to Justice Anthony Kennedy, overthrows millennia of law and culture. Yet, what should be the response of a man or woman of faith who has published as an advocate of conjugal marriage, and who must now teach law students these postmodern principles as legal reality? Using messages from C.S. Lewis's lectures to war torn Europe, this essay challenges both the scholar of faith and the postmodern academy.
