As it turns out, Nazarenes are all over the map in the same way as the old line Protestant churches. From far left to far right.
From what I know of Lance Schmitz he is of the far-left, social justice, pro-choice variety. The organization FaithfulAmerica is cut from the same cloth.
As for Ultraviolet, here is an issue they consider agonizingly important enough for them to list as one of the reasons for their founding: "In the winter of 2011, iPhone’s Siri was able to instruct users in where to find Viagra, adult escorts, and even where to score drugs, but couldn’t locate a single abortion provider in New York City."
So this remains a battle not about women's health, but about the right to kill babies. I would have more respect for them if they would simply say it.
I guess my experience around Nazarenes must have been limited to those on the fundamentalist end of the scale. There is a Nazarene university in Bethany OK, a suburb of Oklahoma City, where Hobby Lobby is based. That suburb has a history of being run by the college/university, including no liquor stores being allowed for many years.
Also about UltraViolet....
...”Since the Komen debacle, UltraViolet has found numerous reasons to rile up its members. It was the first group to call for advertisers to ditch Rush Limbaugh’s show after he called Georgetown student Sandra Fluke a “slut,” and that petition collected more than 160,000 signatures. More than 40 advertisers have peeled off the show so far, including ProFlowers, which Ultraviolet singled out as an organization that primarily serves women.”
