VIDEO: ‘Gays Need Not Apply.’ So We Applied.

The National Organization for Marriage’s sister organization, the Ruth Institute (just as fringy as NOM), is running a “Reel Love” project. (Recall our investigation of the Ruth Institute.) They’re asking folks to send in video testimonials on what love means to them and if lifelong love is possible.

According to rules and regulations of the contest, content submitted must convey “how lifelong love between one man and one woman is possible.” Translation: we only care about what straight folks have to say about what love means to them.

Not so fast, Dr. J.

Love is love.

We’re posting the video we submitted here to “Reel Love” — it’s sure to get rejected. Who, by the way, puts on a national contest—via the Internet– that effectively bans whole groups of people from participating? Only NOM and the Ruth Institute would engage in such a loving, tolerant, and affirming undertaking.
