Peter Sprigg of the Christian conservative Family Research Council (FRC) has accused gay activists of “intolerance” for Pastor Louie Giglio’s withdrawal from President Barack Obama’s second inauguration.
Giglio, of the Georgia-based Passion City Church, had been selected to deliver the inaugural benediction but withdrew after reports surfaced that in the mid-1990s he advocated for therapies which claim to “cure” gay people’s sexual orientation and called on Christians to prevent the “homosexual lifestyle” from becoming accepted in society.
On Thursday, Giglio, acknowledging the sermon, said he had a right to “hold differing views” and withdrew his name.
