Agreed. ICR was on the list but I'm not sure they should be. (I was the one who mentioned them initially.)
Doug Phillips is listed as an adjunct professor of apologetics with them, but I've been getting their material for a long time and have not seen any evidence that they support Vision Forum or the oddities VF promotes. For example, ICR has women on their staff, listed under the "Scientists" category, so they clearly don't agree with the idea of girls and women never working outside the home or going to college.
I'd like to write ICR to remind them of the icky things Phillips promotes through VF, but I don't intend to cut ties with ICR b/c of it. I direct an online magazine for women, and fully understand that you simply can't agree 100% with everyone who writes/works for you. Still, IMO VF is simply beyond the pale and it'd be good to remind ICR of that.
