The same political evangelicals who have wasted taxpayer's money in the US are taking the Christian Right's homophobic defense of family show to Russia.
And there's a good reason why Putin and the Russian government supports the extreme conservative propaganda.
The same political evangelicals who have wasted taxpayer's money in the US are taking the Christian Right's homophobic defense of family show to Russia.
Back in February, Tony Perkins, the president of the Family Research Council (FRC), a far right Christian political organization, declared that the American Economy was doomed. It was only a matter of time.
The cause for the meltdown? America's acceptance of gay rights, naturally.
Perkins' American Apocalypse
In case you don't know, the Family Research Council- a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) charity- lobbies in Washington against all
things homosexual in the name of supporting family values. "Homosexual
conduct is," according to the FRC, "harmful to the persons who engage in it
and to society at large, and can never be affirmed."
Perkins' argument that acceptance of gay equality can actually cause the economy to
tank is a new one. It works like this: Gay rights, Perkins
predicts, will weaken the nation to such a point that Russia and China will
feel emboldened to drop the dollar as an international currency standard.
American money will be worthless.
