SNAP of course is the organization that advocates for survivors of clergy sexual abuse . They filed a friend of the court brief that was joined by similar orgs as well as the Freedom from Religion Foundation..
See Bold challenge to a law on religion .
Indeed I find it a bold move to advocate that an important piece of civil rights legislation that passed by huge majorities should be overturned. I will try to read the brief later today.
I would prefer those who suffered sexual abuse to be called "victims" rather than "survivors." I am a linguist and believe in using the most appropriate words, especially in provocative subjects such as the sex abuse scandal.
