This is What Jesus Would Do


The United Church of Christ believes that "No matter who you are or where you are on life's journey, you are welcome" at one of their churches. In fact, they believe this so much that they produced an ad that very effectively communicates their philosophy. The ad has been accepted by a number of networks, including ABC Family, AMC, BET, Discovery, Fox, Hallmark, History, Nick@Nite, TBS, TNT, Travel and TV Land.

CBS and NBC, however, felt the UCC's all-inclusive message was "too controversial."

So, the UCC has decided to "challenge TV licenses for stations that refuse to provide equal access." They, of course, want money to help with legal and media fees. And, there's - you guessed it - a petition. If Jesus had had access to the internets, I bet he'd sign it...
