ADF Media corrects Time’s Amy Sullivan on the ADF Pulpit Initiative. For the full article see adfmedia.org:
In an August 5th post by Amy Sullivan on Time’s Swampland blog, “Better Luck Next Time,” there were several factual errors that ADF would like to correct.
Sullivan wrote: “pastors were encouraged to use their pulpits to endorse John McCain“
Not accurate. Participating pastors were not directed in any way as to what they should say about one candidate or another. ADF reached out to a wide range of clergy from numerous denominations, many of whom would clearly have been supportive of then-candidate Obama had they participated in Pulpit Freedom Sunday. ADF would have defended those clergy-members had they participated with as much vigor as anyone who opposed then-candidate Obama. (*Amy mentions All Saints Episcopal in Pasadena later in the post – ADF offered free legal representation to All Saints when it came under attack. The point is, ADF is defending the same constitutional principle across the board and should ADF win, everyone will be more free, including Leftist churches.)
