The World Congress of Families sparks protests in Australia. Let's examine why.

The World Congress of Families, an international "super team" of anti-LGBT and conservative activists, is hosting a "Life, Family, and Freedom Conference" in the city of Melbourne.

NOM cofounder: 'Hard to see... the logical stopping place' between gay-affirming, murder-affirming Christians

Last week, National Organization For Marriage cofounder, Federal Marriage Amendment author, and Princeton University professor Robert George went on Catholic radio to talk about openly gay Christian singer Vicky Beeching. You'll probably guess where he went with this.Read More

His other tactics failing, NOM president turns to anti-trans fear-mongering

NOM's obvious (and growing) desperation will alienate far more than their new shotgun approach to the marriage fight could ever hope to recruit.Read More

Head of NC's anti-marriage equality campaign: Gay people 'defying what they were created to be'

Tami Fitzgerald served as the head and chief mastermind of Amendment One, the campaign that placed a discriminatory marriage amendment into the Tar Heel State's constitution. While she masked the true animus that drove her to that line of work back when the bright lights of the campaign were on her, Ms. Fitzgerald is now coming out and admitting that hers is a cause that goes well beyond marriage and instead apples directly to LGBT people themselves.Read More
