I used to think the ACLU was doing good; not anymore.


I used to support the ACLU, too, but no more. They have gone astray. Or maybe it's more apt to say that they've carried things too far and built up too much hostility both in themselves and in reactions against them.

None of which has anything to do with whether or not it's nice (not to mention Christian) to use the weight of Christian hegemony to overpower and alienate non-Christians.

Or whether it's constructive to feed the hostility cycle.

There isn't any attack on Christian culture. This county has a Christian based culture. Denying that is ridiculous. The attack, such that it's been, is against Christian religious hegemony and the threat of theocracy. Were it not for that perceived threat, the ACLU would not have had a religion portfolio.
