Hate group leader Tony Perkins is furious with Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal, who last week denounced his state’s pending RFRA bill by quoting from the bible.

The longtime congressman-turned-governor sounded a lot like his old party last week when …

The Family Research Council has nothing to do with the case against those anti-gay Oregon bakers. But they’d really appreciate it if you’d send the FRC some money to express general outrage.

And the Alabama crazy train continues to roll on.

Tony Perkins is ever so unhappy with John Kasich.

Tony Perkins appeared on CNN today to declare that the National Review‘s story about top evangelicals holding a “dump Cruz” conference call was a lie.

There was no conference call.” Watch …

Ryan Anderson writes for the Heritage Foundation: Last Friday, the Georgia Senate passed a good bill that protects religious freedom in the aftermath of the Supreme Court’s redefinition of marriage.

The upshot: If …

NOM’s shameless history of using fake photos continued yesterday when they posted the above image of a January 23rd gay rights rally in Milan, claiming that it’s from a recent anti-gay “Family Day” event in Rome.

This morning members of Westboro Baptist are picketing outside the funeral of Antonin Scalia, who “well knows and understands the folly and fatality of that Catholic Monster he spent his life time nourishing and worshipping.”  Because, presumably, Scalia is now in hell with billions of other Catholics.
