Ethics and Public Policy Center
From their “About“: Founded in 1976, the Ethics and Public Policy Center is Washington, D.C.’s premier institute dedicated to applying the “Judeo-Christian” [bwahaha] moral tradition to critical issues of public policy. From the Cold War to the war on terrorism, from disputes over the role of religion in public life to battles over the nature of the family, EPPC and its scholars have consistently sought to defend the great Western “ethical” imperatives, etc.
[Yeah, we all know what their ethics and public policy are.]
