Leonard Pitts wrongly claims Christians are historically late to support civil rights. Pitts should know slavery in Britain was abolished by Christians like Thomas Clarkson. In the US, abolitionist John Brown studied to be a Congregationalist Minister. Martin Luther King was a Christian minister. Yes, there were bad eggs, but Pitts ignores the vast number of Christians who led the battle for civil rights. Pitts correctly states that many Christians lead efforts to discriminate against gay people through demonization and political activity, but that doesnt give Pitts license to skew history.
