Christian Right's compassion deficit...hypocrites!!!!!!!
It's business as usual at the web sites of the American Family Association, the Family Research Council, the Christian Coalition, Focus on the Family, Concerned Women for America, and the Coral Ridge Ministries.
These powerful and well-funded political Christian fundamentalist organizations appear to be suffering from a compassion deficit. Organizations which are amazingly quick to organize to fight against same-sex marriage, a woman's right to choose, and embryonic stem cell research are missing in action when it comes to responding to the disaster in southern Asia. None of their web sites are actively soliciting aid for the victims of the earthquake/tsunami.

1. And this is surprising because...
I am really trying to find my way back to a good spiritual relationship with God, but these assholes make it really hard.

2. You know as well as I do...
that the sole purpose of those groups is to add fuel to the right wing version of the culture wars, and to raise (steal) money from the working class fundies. However, it is good to point out there hypocrisy at times like this, so thanks for the link.
