don't know why the Family Research Council continues to keep me on its email list. I received one today about ENDA.
Like so many things put out by the Family Research Council, the email is full of distortions and doublespeak. I want to highlight two of the most egregious:
President Obama wants to punish Christians by . . .
ENDA will redefine your faith as illegal workplace bigotry . . . make the government a full partner in the homosexual rights movement . . . and force churches, small businesses run by Christians, and faith-based charities to hire nonbelievers or face federal investigation.
This is something I don't understand. It is bold faced lying. I am an atheist and feel horrible if I lie and would think that Christians in leadership positions would also feel bad.
