RIP Richard Posner.
He was an intellectual colossus and (outside of academic fights) a sweet man from whom I learned a lot.
But more importantly, he married my wife and me when we eloped 31 years ago.
It was a doubly stressful moment for a young academic—meeting Posner for the first time, and eloping.
“The only material question,” Posner said as he pulled a folder of wedding ceremonies from his desk, “is whether you want an allusion to a divine being.”
"Yes, please” said my dear bride, “we’re getting our marriage blessed in church when we get home.”
Posner the impish atheist looked at us with a twinkle and married us before God.
(And we did indeed have the wedding officially blessed a month later.)
Much love to Richard Posner and condolences to his family.
