Today's Washington Post contained a front-page story about the Alliance Defense Fund. If you have not heard of them, you need to. This was a group founded by, among others, James Dobson and James Kennedy, two men who are sworn enemies of GLBT equality.
The ADF fancies itself as the answer to the American Civil Liberties Union, defending their view of the Bible and trying to get that enforced in the United States court systems.
Gary S. McCaleb, the director of the ADF's litigation team, who perceives "clear hostility to Christian thought," says "What we see is an overarching agenda from the left wing and the pro-homosexual groups." That right GLBT community--they want to be your worst nightmare.
Barry W. Lynn, executive director of Americans United for the Separation of Church and State, says, " They're not for some form of generic religious freedom. They're for Christian superiority, that Christians take over the courts."
Make no mistake folks, the ADF and people who support their agenda, are not seeking an equal voice in the courts--they want to be THE voice. Those like me who support equality for ALL people need to get behind the ACLU and any other group who will pick up the sword and fight for the GLBT community.
