Lauderdale, Florida. GUARD (Gays United Against Repression and Discrimination) has reacted to a call for a community response to the revived anti-gay open and subliminal activities of the Coral Ridge Ministries under the church leadership of the syndicated TV preacher and political activist Dr. D. James Kennedy. A "fair play" leadership call has been released and organizations are asked to become involved in a peaceful August 22nd, late afternoon, vigil against the political active far right who would seclude, distort reality and exclude non-heterosexuals from the same rights evangelicals, fundamentalists and charismatics freely enjoy under the Constitution of the United States, BUT WANT YOU TO BELIEVE OTHERWISE. Don't be tricked! The Politically Active Fundamentalist agenda of Kennedy, Bauer, Robertson and others is to cry foul under the Constitutional right of "Freedom of Speech" while shrewdly hiding under the mantle of "Freedom of Religion" void of the Founding Father's belief in "Freedom from Religious Persecution." The open and subliminal attacks through the use of Dr. Paul Cameron's skewed research embodied in the agenda of Focus on the Family and Kennedy's Reclaiming America For Christ operation is allegedly Biblically inspired but in no way is it inspired by and through the words of Christ who walked with the persecuted and not in the temples that fostered the consciousness of wealth and religious supremacy. If it were not for the non-heterosexual minority who would be the next target? These evangelical-fundamentalists are not living the Beatitudes but creating a cash calf. Take your righteous stand today and support the vigil. For further information today contact GUARD at (954) 570-5791 and let freedom ring tomorrow.
