Having gone to law school and practiced  with a few attorneys who later became Judges, and actually having served as a pro-tem judge a few times in minor cases, I am unimpressed by your deference for their opinions.

A big black robe didn't turn me into an omniscient arbiter of all that is holy; nor did it for any of them.  

The ones in Oregon could, at least theoretically, be removed by the voters for being stupid.  

Those with Federal appointments serve for life just because a couple of Senators liked them and a President appointed them.  

That does not give them any more brains than they started with; and certainly didn't anoint their opinions with Godlike qualities!
