Couldn't They Make It A 200-Day Hunger Strike Instead?

Hilarious:
A Virginia-based evangelical Christian group known as the Family Foundation is planning for its members to fast and pray for 40 days and 40 nights later this year in an effort to fight same-sex marriage.

According to LGBT website FrontiersLA.com, the Family Foundation announced earlier this week that members will be refusing food from Aug. 27 to Oct. 4 in support of the state’s Marriage Amendment, passed in 2006, which defined marriage in Virginia as a right reserved only for heterosexual couples. The Amendment was overturned earlier this year and goes before the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on May 11.
I think when a hate group like this one claims that its members are going on a hunger strike, there should be an organization that monitors these people to make sure they are actually not eating.

Look, I get it that these folks really dislike gay people -- but do they hate them enough to not eat for 40 days? Kinda doubt it.
