Some of what Moore is accused of would have been illegal under Alabama law. Moore called the allegations “fake news” and politically motivated, suggesting he, too, thinks potential sexual relations with someone twice his age is immoral.

In light of all that, here's a running list of the many, many righteous things Moore has said about sex, morality and sexual morality over the years:

1. “Our first president said that virtue of morality was a necessary spring of popular government. He said who that is a sincere friend to it can look with indifference on attempts to shake the foundation of the fabric [of society]." — Moore in a September debate with GOP primary opponent Sen. Luther Strange. Moore won the primary.

2. “Our foundation has been shaken. Crime, corruption, immortality, abortion, sodomy, sexual perversion sweep our land. When we become one nation under God again, when liberty and justice for all reigns across our land. We will be truly good again. And then we will be straight.” — Moore in that September GOP primary debate

3. “I want to get freed from political correctness and social experimentation, like transgester troops in our bathroom and inclusiveness.” — Moore in that September GOP primary debate

4. “Homosexual behavior is a ground for divorce, an act of sexual misconduct punishable as a crime in Alabama, a crime against nature, an inherent evil, and an act so heinous that it defies one's ability to describe it.” — Moore in a 2002 state circuit court opinion when he ruled against a woman who had come out as a lesbian in her custody case.

5. Being gay “would render him or her an unfit parent” — Moore in that same 2002 court opinion

6. "[M]inor children will be detrimentally affected by the present lifestyle” — Moore in a 1990s divorce case as he ruled against a woman who had a lesbian affair, according to CNN

7. "[H]omosexuality is against law. I don't recuse for every criminal that comes up, and I'm not comparing criminality with this conduct, but if somebody that commits a murder comes up before my court, I'm not going to recuse them, because that's against what I believe, and it's also against the law” — Moore in a 1990s court opinion, as CNN reported. A higher court agreed to remove Moore from the case because of his beliefs.

8. “Homosexual conduct should be illegal” — 2005 C-SPAN2 interview, first unearthed by CNN

9. “Do you know that bestiality, the relationship between man and beast is prohibited in every state?” — Moore in that same 2005 C-SPAN interview. The host asked: “Did I ask you about having sex with a cow? Or a horse or a dog?” Moore replied: “It's the same thing.”
