Last month, The Iowa Independent reported on an anti-gay marriage Christian group that called homosexual activity “more dangerous for individuals who engage in it than is smoking.”
Today, they report that this same group, the Iowa Family Policy Center, has received over $3 million in federal funding.
Between 2004 and 2009 the politically influential Christian organization Iowa Family Policy Center (IFPC) received more than $3 million in federal grants through two subsidiaries of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. [...]
The money IFPC receives apparently goes to a marriage-counseling program called Marriage Matters, which offers couples weekends along with marriage and pre-marital mentoring.

Wow.
So, by their logic, it's acceptable to smoke yourself to death, but not to be gay and married?
The world of xenophobia must be very small, indeed.
