The Nation magazine had an excellent article that linked Family Research Council President Tony Perkins to prominent racists, including former Grand wizard David Duke. According to the revealing article by Max Blumenthal:
Senate majority leader Bill Frist appeared through a telecast as a speaker at "Justice Sunday," at the invitation of the event's main sponsor, Family Research Council president Tony Perkins. "Justice Sunday" was promoted as a rally to portray Democrats as being "against people of faith." Many of the speakers compared the plight of conservative Christians to the civil rights movement. But in sharing the stage with Perkins, who introduced him to the rally, Frist was associating himself with someone who has longstanding ties to racist organizations.
Just because some one has fraternized with racists, doesn't make him one of them. We all have had dealings with people that we wish we wouldn't have. This is just a cheap shot against Perkins. Perkins may be tied to Duke, but that doesn't make him a clansman, any more than a Christian hanging out with a homosexual makes the Christian a queer.
Eric, perhpas if Perkins wants to vindicate himself, he can explain these ties because it sure stinks. You want to talk cheap shots? Take a look at all of the cheap shots Mr. Perkins has made against gays. Most of it slanderous lies and hateful rhetoric. And by the way, there are many gay people who are Christians.

People like David Duke who stand in defense of white Christendom should be denounced. Imagine someone who would want to keep Europe as a part of white Christendom -- how demonic!
Now, a Europe that will slowly evolve into heavily Balkanized Third World societies, (with a coming Muslim majority), where whites face increasing abuse during the death of their race and culture -- now that is what Christians should stand for.
