Family Research Council Demands Apology

http://www.advocate.com/News/Daily_News/2010/11/25/Family_Research_Council_Demands_Apology/ (http://www.advocate.com/News/Daily_News/2010/11/25/Family_Research_Council_Demands_Apology/)
The religious right group Family Research Council is demanding an apology from the Southern Poverty Law Center after the SPLC, a civil rights organization, labeled the FRC a "hate group" because of its antigay rhetoric.
Earlier this week, FRC was included in alist of 18 hate groups because, as the SPLC's Winter 2010 "Intelligence Report" explains, the group has "continued to pump out demonizing propaganda aimed at homosexual and other sexual minorities."

I am a fair minded person I will extend an apology to them.
I am Sorry.
I am sorry you are no better than A Neo Nazi White Supremacy group.
I am sorry you really don't understand the meaning of Christan Love.

Dammit Janet! You took the words right out of my keyboard...
I'm also sorry that their collective IQ is in negative numbers.

This would be the day, when Christ come to earth (Second Comung) and told everybody that he is gay or trans. Can you imagine their faces? I guess, the Goddess would looooooooooooooovvvvveee it!!!! ;D

They would determine that s/he is not Christ and would nail him to a cross for punishment. Boy would that be ironic.

That's why they are stupid bigot idiots in my eyes. Christ would said to them: "As a punishment for all of you, you have in your next live to be queer". Sometimes it is helpful to walk into the shoes of your neighbor.

Awww, poor FRC, they're too wrapped up in defending their discriminatory views to realize them pulling this little temper tantrum is putting their hypocrisy on display.

If you really felt that way you should not be waving your tiny fist of impotence on the internet, you should be sending the SPLC money. You know, put your money where you mouth is. For the SPLC to do this was HUGE, beyond belief to list a religious organization as a hate group and they need our support in more tangible ways than an obscure net post.

I was thinking along the lines of "I'm sorry that I'm not a billionaire who is obsessed with vigilante justice"
