Is God Love? Is hate Christian? Support GLAAD in opposition of hate.
A church is picketing schools to protest their clubs that support gay rights. Many UUs are supporting Gay Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) in response (recommending a dollar amount for every hour they picket - see schedule below). It would be nice if all people who support love instead of hate do the same.
They started today. Here are articles about today's picketing: Westboro Baptist Church Pickets Obama Girls And Blue Collar Comedy Tour’s Ron White and Westboro Baptist Church Pickets Obama Girls And Blue Collar Comedy Tour’s Ron White. I don't see any major news media reporting on this, but that's probably a good thing, because they don't deserve the attention.
