Membership of $25 includes a subscription to the award-winning journal "Church & State."

Perhaps you or others are unaware of the statements of the religious right which have a bearing on your freedom and mine. This series of quotations (only a few of many) is meant to illustrate their attitude, their distortions, and the threat they pose.

A survey by People for the American Way in 1994 showed that 60% of the American public was unaware of the Christian Coalition.

It is time for the public to wake up. Join us in preserving a principle which has helped make the United States one of the freest but most religious nations. Read the series of postings debunking myths about church-state separation. It is available also in pamphlet form.

ON HOMOSEXUALS (other topics available)

"[Homosexual] conduct is anti-social, and it is a pathology. It is a sickness, and it needs to be treated." --Pat Robertson, "700 Club," 3/7/90

"And if the lesbians who don't have babies, if they can get their sisters to be less than the fulfilled woman they could be, willing to forfeit that, then of course they've brought them down to their level... there's such an incredible militancy on the part of lesbian women to get heterosexual women to abort their babies." -- Pat Robertson, "700 Club," 6/26/90

"What Planned Parenthood is doing is absolutely contrary to everything Christian. It is teaching kids to fornicate, teaching people to have adultery, teaching people to get involved in every kind of bestiality, homosexuality, lesbianism - everything that the Bible condemns. And teaching to be without absolutely any moral restraint." -- Pat Robertson, "700 Club," 4/9/91

"Just like what Nazi Germany did to the Jews, so liberal America is now doing to the evangelical Christians. It's no different. It's the same thing. It's happening all over again. It's the Democratic Congress, the liberal- biased media and the homosexuals who want to destroy all Christians. Wholesale abuse and discrimination and the worst bigotry directed toward any group in America today. More terrible than anything suffered by any minority in our history." -- Pat Robertson, quoted by columnist Molly Ivins, Fort Worth Star-Telegram, 9/14/93

"The homosexual blitzkrieg has been better planned and executed than Hitler's... Unlike the French, who wept in the streets of Paris as the German's marched by, we don't even know we've been conquered." -- William Dannemeyer, former congressman, Shadow in the Land: Homosexuality in America, 1989

"You know who's pushing [abortion]. You saw some of those women out there. I mean those women aren't ever going to have a baby by anybody. I mean, these are primarily lesbians and, lesbians don't have babies. And it's the one thing a mother has - that a lesbian can never have - is this femininity, and they can never achieve that. And so, in order to level the field, they say, `Hey, let you abort your baby so you'll be like us, because we don't have them.' ... They don't like families." -- Pat Robertson, "700 Club," 7/15/90

"Aids is not just God's punishment for homosexuality; it is God's punishment for the society that tolerates homosexuality." -- Jerry Falwell
