In Conversation: Antonin Scalia
The Supreme Court justice on his legacy, gay rights, his belief in the Devil, and the TV show “Duck Dynasty”:
“Maybe the world is spinning toward a wider acceptance of homosexual rights, and here’s Scalia, standing athwart it. At least standing athwart it as a constitutional entitlement. But I have never been custodian of my legacy. When I’m dead and gone, I’ll either be sublimely happy or terribly unhappy.
“You believe in heaven and hell?
Oh, of course I do. Don’t you believe in heaven and hell?
“No.
Oh, my.
“Does that mean I’m not going?
[Laughing.] Unfortunately not!”
