'The Metropolitan Community Churches (MCC), which has more than 300 churches and 43,000 members world-wide,, has joined other communities of faith in opposing the 'Don't ask, don't tell' policy of the military.

Declaring that 'the very forces mobilized not only to defend our country, but to establish freedom and justice for all should no longer be allowed to provide refuge for bias, bigotry, and injustice,' Rev. Elder Nancy L. Wilson, moderator of MMC, called for repeal of the military's 'Don't ask, Don't tell' ban on lesbian, gay, and bisexual personnel in a staement released on Sept. 4.'
