Wingnuts Launch Legal Defense Fund For Lisa Miller Conspirator

If there is any doubt that the Christianists hold nothing but contempt for the rule of law, the establishment of a "legal defense fund" for Timothy Miller who was arrested for allegedly having helped Lisa Miller kidnap her daughter and flee the country in violation of numerous court orders and a federal statute. It's all part of the mindset held by far too many Christianists that they have special rights and can ignore whatever laws and rulings they don't like. So far, the nutters have contributed $30,000 to Timothy Miller's defense of charges under a federal indictment. Joe Jervis described the situation that appears to involve a conspiracy centered on Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia, this way:
*
Last month we also learned that Miller and her daughter are living in a house owned by the father of Liberty Counsel head Mat Staver's secretary. Which is totally a coincidence, right?
*
Right Wing Watch is following this saga. Here are some highlights:
*
We had been covering the Lisa Miller saga for over a year, but the trail had largely gone cold as Miller had kidnapped her daughter and disappeared and nobody seemed to know where they were ... until last month when a man, Timothy Miller [no relation], was arrested for allegedly having helped Miller and her daughter flee the country.

Timo Miller, as he is known, is now being charged with aiding in an "international parental kidnapping" ... and, of course, his supporters have set up a legal defense website to help him fight the charges which paints both Lisa and Timo as Christian heroes for refusing to allow a "child to become a pawn of the agenda of those who desire to 'normalize' homosexuality":
*
Since God has not intended for two men or two women to raise children as a family unit, they can’t produce children on their own. This creates a problem in their agenda to create the perception that homosexual behavior is normal. Thus they resort to adopting children or using artificial insemination from a male donor in the case of a lesbian relationship. Can you imagine being a child growing up in the middle of such an environment? It is a tragedy that laws and courts in our nation can be manipulated to allow an innocent and defenseless child to become a pawn of the agenda of those who desire to “normalize” homosexuality. Truly sin has devastating consequences.
*
The accusation begs a question. How can a biologically unrelated individual who has not gone through the adoption process even have “parental” rights? Homosexual marriages are not recognized federally, nor are they recognized by most states. In fact, most states have specific prohibitions banning homosexual marriage. These bans help to protect children from becoming pawns for homosexual activists who desire to use them in their crusade to “normalize” the homosexual lifestyle. Unfortunately, Vermont does not offer such protections to its defenseless children.
