ROBERT KNIGHT: Indiana pizza parlor victim of gay lobby’s intolerance of Christians

It took a day or two, but the intolerant left managed to turn a tiny, Christian, family-owned pizza parlor in Indiana into a useful "face of hate." Nice piece of work, during Holy Week.

But the ACLU caught wind of the project and blew it to kingdom come. In a threatening letter Nov. 20, the ACLU warned the school to stop aiding the group or face legal trouble. It's all because the charity is infected secondhand with the virus known as Christianity.
