Minnesota pastors latest target of gay activists

Minneapolis — A gathering of pastors in support of a ban on same-sex “marriage” in Minnesota was disrupted Nov. 10 by a bomb threat, the latest of a string of incidents involving increasingly violent actions by pro-homosexual protestors.

Some 300 pastors and religious leaders met at Grace Church in Minneapolis to get advice from the Minnesota Family Council about how to protect traditional marriage through a state amendment. About 75 protesters gathered outside the church proclaiming that the Bible supports gay marriage. The meeting was disrupted for about 30 minutes while authorities conducted a sweep of the building after the church received a bomb threat.

The threat is the latest extreme protest directed at pro-family groups. In October in Boston, Focus on the Family’s Love Won Out conference was besieged by more than 1,000 pro-gay protesters shouting obscenities at the church where the event was held. And Nov. 7, a homosexual-activist group stormed into the Washington  offices of the Family Research Council to protest its support of abstinence education.
