Revealing FACTS on the ACLU
from its own writings
by Diane Dew
Ever notice how the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) seems to take on only cases that are anti-Christian - pro-sodomy, pro-abortion, anti-family, pro-pornography, pro-prostitution, pro-euthanasia, pro-homosexual, pro-infanticide, pro-crime, pro-humanism, anti-God -- and, except for atheism, anti-religion?
It calls itself the American Civil Liberties Union, but the ACLU is not American; it is uncivil (to the unborn, which are shredded mercilessly to pieces without anesthetic); and it knows nothing of true liberty, which can only be found in Jesus Christ, when one is set free from the bondage of all the SIN this evil organization PROMOTES!
Stated Goals
The ACLU's founder, Roger Baldwin, stated: "We are for SOCIALISM, disarmament, and ultimately for abolishing the state itself... We seek the social ownership of property, the abolition of the propertied class, and the SOLE CONTROL of those who produce wealth. COMMUNISM is the goal." (Source: Trial and Error, by Geo. Grant)
The ACLU is destructive to the fabric of our society. Christians
must recognize Satan as the source - the instigator - when the end results of an
organization's efforts are only "to kill, to steal, and to destroy."
All we need to is examine the (rotten) fruit.
Following are some of the stated goals of the ACLU, from its own published
Policy Issues:
the legalization of prostitution (Policy 211);
the defense of all pornography, including CHILD PORN, as "free speech" (Policy 4);
the decriminalization and legalization of all drugs (Policy 210);
the promotion of homosexuality (Policy 264);
the opposition of rating of music and movies (Policy 18);
opposition against parental consent of minors seeking abortion (Policy 262);
opposition of informed consent preceding abortion procedures (Policy 263);
opposition of spousal consent preceding abortion (Policy 262);
opposition of parental choice in children's education (Policy 80)
-- not to mention the defense and promotion of euthanasia, polygamy, government control of church institutions, gun control, tax-funded abortion, birth limitation, etc. (Policies 263, 133, 402, 47, 261, 323, 271, 91, 85).
Following is a case in point (from David Barton's "America:
To Pray or Not to Pray").
In 1988, California was considering adopting legislation on sex education for
public schools requiring that course material and
instruction should stress that monogamous heterosexual intercourse within
marriage is a traditional American value.
The Senator promoting the bill received a letter of protest from the ACLU dated
April 18, 1988 stating:
"It is our position that monogamous,
heterosexual intercourse within marriage
as a traditional American value is an
unconstitutional establishment of religious
doctrine in public schools.... We believe
[this bill] violates the First Amendment."
Truth is, liberals are unwilling to simply let others be, but
rather seek to impose their UNgodliness upon Christians. It is a mission
to
them and other atheists to pervert the freedoms of others. The ACLU does not run
to the defense of those who are harmed; it aggressively
seeks out opportunities to corrupt pure freedoms.
Finances
How does the ACLU pay for its activities?
George Grant, author of "Trial and Error," puts the ACLU's annual
budget (1993) at $14 MILLION (FOURTEEN MILLION DOLLARS) - much of which is
"SUPPLIED BY THE AMERICAN TAXPAYER through the Federal program mandated by
the Civil Rights Attorneys' Fee Awards Act of 1976. If the ACLU wins a case that
involves a public institution, for instance, the organization collects the
full legal fees of its attorneys even though those attorneys offered their
services pro bono (without charge).
Membership
1993 membership in the ACLU was 250,000 members, with 70 staff lawyers, and
5,000 volunteer attorneys, handling an average of 6,000 cases at any one time.
