    The ACLU has helped Christian, yea even evangelical, groups before. I think at one point they were working with Dr. Falwell about some issues in Lynchburg. :)

    That is old news. "...a federal civil rights lawsuit charging illegal race and religious discrimination in a local town's refusal to issue a zoning permit to a predominantly African-American church."

    Where were they when the G-forces came to destroy that Baptist church in Chicago which would not withhold stafff's income tax because it violated their beliefs to do so?
