However, in reality, the APs original reporting appears to be a very clear statement of facts, as put forth by the SPLC on its website:
With the expansion of equal rights for LGBT people, especially, the Liberty Counsel has come into their own, working to attempt to ensure that Christians can continue to engage in anti-LGBT discrimination in places of business under the guise of 'religious liberty.' Through lawsuits and its annual Awakening conference in Orlando, the Counsel attempts to enforce the idea that Christian beliefs and law trump all other law.
Liberty Counsel regularly portrays gay people as perverse, diseased pedophiles putting Western civilization at risk, and in doing so it is way, way over the line, Mark Potok, a senior fellow at the center, told the AP.
