From An Unlikely Ally:
Jul. 6th, 2006 09:01 pmThe Rutherford Institute, one of the largest right-wing Christian think tanks/lobbying groups in the country supports this fight:
"Sgt. Stewart and his family have already been harmed in the ultimate way. The least the Department of Veterans Affairs can do to ease that suffering is to act in the manner that realizes the constitutional values which Sgt. Stewart died to preserve."
The article is long, but that's the basic idea.

Date: 2006-07-07 02:33 am (UTC)As long as the religious of the world recognize that it is commonality of values and decency, and not of specific articles of faith, that matter, then I think we'll have come a long way.
Alot of Christian Groups are beginning to realize that the battle is not *against* pagans, but against those who would enforce a statist style of atheism in the name of religious neutrality. Stifling religions will not create understanding. And finding fault with Pagan articles of faith isn't a battle that Christianity can (or should) win in a free society. So, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em.
