Christians opposed to same-sex marriage are being persecuted for their homophobia and bigotry, preacher and radio host Matt Slick told “The Daily Show” on Monday. Todd Clayton, a gay Christian and student at Union Theological Seminary in New York and a leader on the upcoming Truthdig Trek, says, “That’s insane.”

The Trek will take place in the Appalachian Mountains from June 27 to July 1 and will also be led by Truthdig Publisher Zuade Kaufman, columnist Chris Hedges and contributor Thomas Hedges.
