(Out of ) Focus on the Family

Dobson's camp has publicized a small portion of the story on gay "rehabilitation." Dr. Robert Spitzer, author of often quoted research, tells us the rest of the story, including how hard it was to gather a sample group for the study.

Dobson recently took money out of his ministry to the poor in order to finance an anti-gay marriage campaign. I can think of at least one person in particular who might have a problem with that.

What in the hell is wrong with these people?

Focus on the family = An attempt to validate and legitimise right wing christian bigotry. (deliberate non capitalisation of the name christian).

@Deshard62 I would. Don't respond to one's response before they respond. Stop playing telepath.

@Deshard62 as long as he professed a deep and abiding love for Jebus, well, that just might do tha trick. :)

So, he wants to CHANGE his results because he's "uncomfortable" with the truth? What a hypocrite!!!

What idiot cunt.

[besamemucho5]

is this guy doctor naive or stupid?...so he is smart enough to engage in a study about homosexuals that doesn't make sense, but he is taken like a kid to sign a release to focus on the family, for his study to be used any which way they want to?...i don't believe that .....i think he signed the release knowing what they were going to do with it.....

[Deshard62]

How many of those who believe that gays can be "cured" would let their daughters marry an "ex-gay"?

Didn't think so.

Continued - only acting permissive towards rainbow interests because they think there is some votes in it for them, while at the same time expending alot of effort in other areas butting into people's lives and telling them the nanny state knows best. I don't trust them one bit. Right wing liberals however start from the position that what someone does is their own business as long as it hurts no one else. This is far more encompassing of freedom, and ideologically honest.

It is NOT a "right wing disinformation campaign". Just because some nutcase groups are called "right wing" does not mean that "right wing conservative" is the same as "right wing liberal". While the two might have some commonality of economic issues does not mean there is any agreement on this stuff. Furthermore if you study politics you will see that the so called 'liberal left' (who is usually associated with pro rainbow agenda) picks and chooses what they want to be liberal on.
