Christian research organization identified as a hate group

Posted by Ann on December 13, 2010

The Family Research Council has just been labeled a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

In December 2010, the Family Research Council (FRC) was placed on Southern Poverty Law Center’s (SPLC) list of Hate Groups. In amongst 932 designated active hate groups in the United States which include:  neo-Nazis, Ku Klux Klan, White Supremacists, White Nationalists, Black Separatists, Racist Skinheads, Holocaust Deniers, Neo-Confederates, Anti-Immigrationists and Anti-Gay groups, there is listed the Family Research Council.

According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, the Family Research Council actively spreads myths and lies about the GLBT community. They aren’t the only Christian fundamentalist group identified as spreading hate. Also on the list, the American Family Association  (AFA), Concerned Women for America (CWA) and the National Organization for Marriage (NOM).
