The Religious Right’s Panic Over Obama & Equality

Several Religious Right organizations who have been long-term advocates of criminalizing homosexual, and even punishing them by death, are in an uproar over President Obama’s call for LGBT equality.

In reference to the White House Civil Rights page address to provide equality to LGBT Americans, American Family Association’s Rev. Donald Wildmon said:

“This is only the beginning of Obama’s plans to reshape society. His view is that unborn babies aren’t worth protecting and that homosexuals deserve special rights.”

The editor of CovenantNews.com has stated:

Obama “intends to use his office to promote and maintain the sexual deviant criminal behavior of homosexuality (with malice aforethought). Civil officials who approve of homosexuality, make the civil government a vile cesspool from which the abominations vomit out across the land.”

And LifeSiteNews.com stated:

“The Obama Administration has posted its plans to implement the most radical homosexualist policy agenda in the nation.”

Of course you have to keep in mind it was the Relgious Right that made very similar statement about JFK and Civil Rights back in the 60’s.  If equality is “radical”, I guess I’m a radical.  What amazes me still is the tax-free status of these hate groups.  The same who proclaim that “God is love”, spew hate in the name of God, push their religious agenda into politics, yet do it tax free…again, amazing!
