Our own Matt Hill was one of 24 gay rights activists arrested at Jerry Falwell’s Liberty University yesterday. The story is getting national attention… here’s the Houston Chronical.
On a related note… I really appreciated Leonard Pitt’s scathing column in today’s N&R…
“Put simply, I’ve had it up to here with the moral hypocrisy and intellectual constipation of Bible literalists. … By which I mean people like you, who dress their homophobia up in Scripture, insisting with sanctimonious sincerity that it’s not homophobia at all, but just a pious determination to live according to what the Bible says.”

Yes! Leonard Pitts Jr. is to be respected for his willingness to always call it like he sees it. I have been a fan for years.
In this one however he is right on the money.
