D. James Kennedy Ministries has filed a lawsuit against Amazon, Guidestar, and the Southern Poverty Law Center, citing defamation and religious discrimination.

Filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Alabama, Montgomery Division on Wednesday, DJK Ministries provided The Christian Post with a copy of the suit.

According to the suit, in January Amazon wrongfully denied DJK Ministries access to the AmazonSmile program due to the SPLC labeling the ministry a hate group for its opposition to homosexuality.

“EXCELLENT! they are 100 percent in the right”

I agree. The SPLC is a racist organization at a minimum.

SPLC is way past it’s shelf life. It is just another convenient stick to beat conservatives and Christians with.

I’m glad to finally see this. I often wondered why groups like the FRC which were attacked by a guy who found them on the SPLC’s website and cited that as the reason he shot the place up, did not sue the SPLC. So glad to see this finally happening.

I had wondered about whether Amazon Smile would donate to the kind of charity I prefer. Now I know.

Hear, hear! And don’t be shy about going after journalists, on the basis that the wire services homogenize journalism and in doing so conspire to restrain trade in political perspectives.

Everyone needs to google “Morris Dees Divorce Papers” and take Amazon and Apple to task for supporting a man who’s step daughter didn’t fare well at all under the care of this pervert.

And more.

I really miss Kennedy. He was a real defender of Christ.
