Robert Case II wants enough
evangelicals to be at places like the
New York Times and the
Washington Post so reporters begin to see them as living, breathing people and not backward bible-thumpers, reports
Gal Beckerman. Case says: "The homosexuals are our role model in this. They had the same problems we do twenty, twenty-five years ago -- a despised minority hiding in the closet, and all the stories in the media looked to point out their weaknesses. They overcame this by integrating into the mainstream."
