More Equal Than Others

I know this has almost nothing to do with atheism, but I thought you guys would be interested in my take on a recent news event having to do with civil injustice at my Examiner column. A taste:

The Rev. Eric P. Lee, president of the Los Angeles chapter of the seminal civil rights organization the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, is facing removal from his post because he supports civil rights. Lee came out vociferously against California's Proposition 8 banning gay marriage, which apparently did not please the folks at SCLC headquarters. They have commanded to him to appear in Atlanta to make a personal account of himself, and he has refused to do so.

Obviously, there is so much irony here that you could build a giant robot.
