They may say this on their website but can you name me the last time
the ACLU had a BIG case that hit the papers defending Christianity?
I look at ACLU like I do the HSUS – they both preach on their
websites things that I never see them do in public. Most of the
crap is there to get people to still contribute and believe they are
for what they claim while in secret their agendas/actions prove
different.
They have been heavily involved alongside the EFF (Electronic Frontier
Foundation) in the lawsuits against the federal government over the
NSA illegal wiretaps, and over misuse of National Security Letters. I
consider this defense of freedom to benefit everyone, including
Christians (as these things have been misused against alleged
Christian "militias"). For the most part, when the ACLU is on a side I
agree with, generally the EFF is standing with them. Therefore, I tend
to be more ready to support the EFF directly rather than the ACLU. But
the ACLU does do good things on occasion. I often use their postings
to alert me of issues and then go do my own investigation. It would be
nice if they got their heads out of their rectums on other issues, but
you go with what you can get.
Sincerely,
Eric Vought
