Has anyone seen the commercials for the United Church of Christ "Still Speaking" campaign.

I'm not a religious person, but these ads are pretty cool.

Cool - I liked the first one, especially. The neo-cons will decry the inclusion of a lesbian couple in both of these ads, but I applaud the UCC for making a very courageous statement in favor of inclusion. More power to 'em!

*sigh*

I suppose I should be happy about ads like this....but it saddens me that a Christian church has to say "Come worship with us! We include _________s!"

This is a no-brainer, people. If you're a spiritual center, you accept all spirits.

That must have been Landover Baptist Church with the guards out in front.

I know. This falls under the "I would certainly hope so" catagory. Being gay is a life, not a lifestyle choice. Get over it.
