03/18/2004: "Stuart Smalley, activist"
The King County (WA) Journal reported today about the SoulForce protest that took place outside the church where United Methodist pastor Karen Dammann is being tried for violating the disciplinary prohibition on active homosexuals serving in Methodist ministry. A quote from one of the protesters goes a long way toward demonstrating just how bankrupt this movement is:
"It's a great day for going to jail," said the Rev. Phil Lawson, 71, a veteran civil rights activist and retired United Methodist minister. "I've resisted injustice and that makes me feel great."
Bonhoeffer, King, and Gandhi all just rolled over in their graves and shouted, "CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE ISN'T ABOUT YOU!!!"
