Dobson's Group Not "Religious"

Via John Aravosis at AMERICAblog

First, Microsoft caves to anti-gay radicals in the name of diversity, and before that, ABC refused to run a pro-diversity ad for the United Church of Christ. The reason ABC gave the UCC for denying their ad:

"The network doesn't take advertising from religious groups. It's a long-standing policy," said Susan Sewell, an ABC spokeswoman

You can therefore imagine everyone's surprise when ABC months later accepted an ad from the radical right religious group Focus on the Family.

Which really just goes to show what we knew all along: Dobson's group really is just a hate-mongering organization and not a religious organization. It seems pretty obvious: the UCC is undoubtedly a religious group, and Dobson's little group is not like the UCC, therefore they are not a religious group. So says ABC. And if they can't be trusted, who can?
It's almost as good as the resolution in "Miracle on 34th Street" where the judge is willing to accept the authority of the United States Post Office that the guy on trial is indeed Santa Clause.
