Description
Autumn Edmonton GATE (Edmonton) sought endorsements for a brief to be submitted to Edmonton City Council calling for legislation to prohibit discrimination against gays in civic employment. When they approached the Netherlands Church, an organization that had internationally supported gay rights, a spokesman for the Church refused support, citing God's wrath on the cities of Sodom and "Gemorra"[sic] "because of their sinful lives including homosexuality."
