Earlier this week, Bryan Fischer of the American Family Association gave reason number 1,999,999 why he doesn't really think President Obama is really a Christian--he doesn't think that anyone who supports abortion and gay rights can really be "a sincere follower of Jesus Christ." Well, that cuts out a significant number of the nation's avowed Christians--including yours truly.
But as I mentioned at Liberal America, Fischer's sense of proportion is severely warped. When the Senate Intelligence Committee's report on the torture of detainees came out, Fischer was one of the most ham-handed defenders of the "enhanced interrogation" program. He declared that the detainees not only had no expectation of being treated humanely (notwithstanding the Fourth Geneva Convention), but that they brought any torture they experienced on themselves.
So Fischer wrings his hands about abortion and gay rights potentially destroying our country, but he has no problem with something that any decent American would find repugnant. That, ladies and gentlemen, is proof positive of the religious right's moral bankruptcy.
