Gay Bashing As a Fundraiser

I have stated many times that the "family values crowd has turned gay-hating into an art form - and a huge tool to raise money so that the leaders of these "Christian" organizations can live comfortably without working like the rest of us. One of the most foul of these organizations is the Traditional Values Coalition. While I mind all of these organizations the antithesis of being Christian, TVC has taken the anti-gay model to a new level and has been certified as a hate organization by the Southern Poverty Law Center which tracks hate organizations around the country. To be certified as an anti-gay hate group, the organization must go beyond mere disagreement with homosexuality by subjecting gays and lesbians to campaigns of personal vilification. The form below shows how TVC uses as anti-gay bigotry as a fundraising tool.

While the form itself is bad enough, a brief viewing of the TVC website discloses that vilifying gays is an obsession with this organization and the most outrageous lies and recitations of bogus "research" is the norm for TVC. To win the ultimate battle for gay equality, we need to know our enemies and better yet educate the rest of the country as to what these false Christian groups are really all about. Hat trick to Jeremy at Good As You.
