Is the ACLU an Anti-Christian Organization? Saturday November 12, 2005 It is becoming common for religious conservatives to attack the ACLU as an anti-Christian organization. Because the ACLU fights government endorsement or promotion of Christian beliefs, this supposedly makes the organization anti-Christian.

The ACLU has a page listing just a few of the recent cases in which they have defended the religious liberty of Christians: December 22, 2004: ACLU of New Jersey successfully defends right of religious expression by jurors. November 20, 2004: ACLU of Nevada supports free speech rights of evangelists to preach on the sidewalks of the strip in Las Vegas. August 11, 2004: ACLU of Nebraska defends church facing eviction by the city of Lincoln. July 10, 2004: Indiana Civil Liberties Union
