Rev. Michael Bray is an American anti-abortion activist convicted in 1985 of two counts of conspiracy and one count of possessing unregistered explosive devices in relation to 10 bombings of women's health clinics and offices of liberal advocacy groups in Washington, D.C., Maryland and Virginia. Initially sentenced to 10 years in prison, he agreed to a plea bargain; he served 46 months from 1985 to 1989.

He and his wife, Jayne, are named defendants in the Supreme Court decision Bray v. Alexandria. He is considered to be a terrorist by the National Memorial Institute for the Prevention of Terrorism [1]

In 1994, the F.B.I. suspected that he and other anti-abortion figures might be developing "a conspiracy that endeavors to achieve political or social change through activities that involve force or violence." as stated in a confidential teletype sent to all 56 F.B.I. field offices.[2]

[edit] Background

Michael Bray is a former Midshipman at the United States Naval Academy.[3] He dated Kathie Lee Gifford when they were in high school.[3]

He was formerly based in Bowie, Maryland and now lives in Wilmington, Ohio where he professes to be a member of the Army of God.

[edit] Interviews

On 15 April 1999, Bray was interviewed by Dan Rather on 60 Minutes. He was referred to by Randall Terry as "whacked." Bray continues to speak out in support of people who kill abortion doctors, including Paul Jennings Hill and James Charles Kopp.

Bray was interviewed by Richard Dawkins for The Root of All Evil?

[edit] Interview with Richard Dawkins

When asked "did it not occur to you that that doctor had a wife to grieve for him," Bray replied by confirming Dawkins' accusation, that he did believe that Paul Hill was in heaven.

Richard Dawkins was able to obtain the original tapes of the interviews he did for the "Root of All Evil". He has published them in a 3 DVD set. The one with Michael Bray was conducted in a park in Colorado. Bray said that he (and those who were his followers by inference) believed the Bible to be the inerrant word of God. He said he believes homosexuality and adultery if proven in a court with the usual protections of law should carry a death sentence.
