God's law supersedes what man legislates

Is there a higher law than man-made law? If there is, when should it be evoked? Is Deep Throat (Mark Felt) a hero or a goat? Did the fourth branch of government (the free press) do a service to our country?

When I was a Boy Scout, I earned the Pro Deo et Patria Award that said God's law, truth and honor, were above all man-made laws. If you profess to be a Christian, you know what the answers are.

I find this latest note from Dr. Hageseth a little disappointing. He seems to assume that all Christians will have the same take on Mr. Felt's actions. Obviously, that's not been the case. I could make a guess on the good doctor's views, but it's been nearly 30 years since I was in one of his classes, and his views might have changed over the years.
