Uncle Gerry wants you to watch two new videos from Wayne Besen's organization Truth Wins Out. The first video is and interview with Dr. Robert Spitzer and his reactions to the outrageous usage of his study by James Dobson, Focus on th Family, and Exodus International. It is interesting to see the author of the most quoted study in Ex-Gaydom state that because of the size of his study and the difficulty in finding subjects for it, he must conclude that change from homo to hetero is possible but extremely rare. The second video is of a married couple, now divorced, on how churches teaching you can pray away the gay are destroying families in the name of family values. Both are very interesting and for sure Focus on the Family does not want you to see them. So (deleted expletives) FOF, here is the truth, may it set you free!
As I watched these videos, all I could think was how many lives have organizations like FOF, Exodus, and any number of churches and/or faith based groups destroyed in the name of Family Values or "God" ( I put God in quotes for they obviously do not know the same God I do who created us all and loves us all and includes us all). The more widely we spread the truth, the more vulnerable people we can save from the clutches of the likes of these organizations. Why are these faith based groups afraid of the truth? Maybe because the truth while setting us free, hurts them for they know not the truth and truth knows them not.
On to more pleasant things .... The Daytona 500 is this weekend and I cannot wait for Ryan and Mike to return and tell me the pits eye view of the race and all those guys running around butching it up. I am sure they will have many interesting stories to tell. Patti from Patti-Cake Land and I have been ghost writing for them this week, but Patti is moving and out of internet connection until next Thursday so I will be doing double duty here and at Boys Are Ugly But So Cute for the next week or so as Ryan and Mike are house sitting for Ryan's Uncle after the 500 so they won't be back in Atlanta for a while yet. Big house, two young men in love all alone for a week, no, I don't think posting a blog will be the topmost thing on their mind. If you haven't been over to Boys Are Ugly or their companion blog The New Boys Club you should check them out. The writing at Boys Are Ugly is great (check out the archives) and the photography at The New Boys Club is outstanding. As long as we are talking outstanding photography, here are some photos I know you will like. So until next time as always, Enjoy!
