Formerly with the virulently anti-gay Coral Ridge Ministries, hate honcho Robert Knight is now with the laughably-named American Civil Rights Union.  Today he is calling for southern California to break away from the dirty gay-loving northern half of the state.  From the Moonie Times: By accusing backers of traditional marriage of being motivated only by animus against homosexuals, the U.S. …

Formerly with Coral Ridge Ministries, hate honcho Robert Knight is now with the laughably-named American Civil Rights Union, where he is calling on the military to refuse to advertise for gay recruits.
