Combating Bigotry & Hate

STAND exposes those who lead efforts to misinform the public so as to stigmatize the Church and its members. We take action because, as history proves, to encroach on the religious liberty of one is to threaten the religious freedom of all. Help us end religious bigotry and hate.

Stop Hate — Don’t Discriminate →

One of the most basic human rights is freedom of religion, the right to practice a faith of one’s choice. Protecting that right is important to all. When members of one religion—or ethnic or social group—are marginalized, others all too often can become targets of similar bigotry or even violence.
