    I’m not going to try to catch you up on The Family Research Council’s “Justice Sunday” event at Highview Baptist Church , described as a “megachurch,” in Louisville on April 24, at which Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist will simulcast to thousands of churches his argument that “The filibuster was once used to protect racial bias, and now it is being used against people of faith.” If you don’t know about this event, you can read their own publicity here and the NYTimes about it here.

    I just want to let you know that there’s an interfaith protest rally at Douglass Boulevard Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), 2005 Douglass Boulevard, Louisville at 2 p.m. Central Presbyterian Church 318 West Kentucky Avenue (4th and Kentucky) Louisville at 2:30 p.m. Co-sponsors are the Clergy & Laity Network, The Clergy & Laity Network of Kentucky, and DriveDemocracy.org.

    For more information, contact Richard Mitchell of the Central Kentucky Council for Peace and Justice.
