I Heartily Concur: Reggie Longcrier

I first saw this on Feministing -- it's a question asked of John Edwards on last night's YouTube debate by Reverend Reggie Longcrier, pastor of Exodus Missionary Outreach Church in Hickory, N.C.:



"Sen. Edwards said his opposition to gay marriage is influenced by his Southern Baptist background. Most Americans agree it was wrong and unconstitutional to use religion to justify slavery, segregation, and denying women the right to vote.

So why is it still acceptable to use religion to deny gay Americans their full and equal rights?"
