澳彩开奖

For a while there, it seemed like the religious right group (FRC) was making some attempt to clean its website of bogus 鈥渞esearch鈥� that defamed gays. Material that peddled a series of falsehoods 鈥� in particular, the articles 鈥淗omosexuality and Child Sexual Abuse,鈥� 鈥淭he Negative Health Effects of Homosexuality,鈥� and 鈥淗omosexual Parenting: Placing Children at Risk鈥� 鈥� went missing from the website. These studies contained several lies, the most important being that gays molest children at far higher rates than heterosexuals; that same-sex parents harm children; and that gays don鈥檛 live nearly as long as heterosexuals.

In 2009, FRC claimed the material had been taken down because the sources used for the articles were, in FRC鈥檚 words, 鈥渙utdated.鈥� But thanks to the of blogger Alvin McEwen, we now know that that defamatory material has found its way back onto FRC鈥檚 website. Not only that: Where the reports used to have a disclaimer that marked them as outdated, they no longer do.

This year, the 澳彩开奖 (澳彩开奖) began listing FRC as a hate group, based precisely on the kinds of material that McEwen points out. Rather than defend the material, the FRC , saying the 澳彩开奖 was 鈥渕aligning鈥� individuals rather than discussing the issues. But, in fact, FRC chief Tony Perkins went on MSNBC in a debate with the 澳彩开奖鈥檚 Mark Potok and promptly 鈥� a real maligning of individuals, and one that had been proven false years before. Perkins even cited a tiny group of anti-gay pediatricians as his source, making it sound as if their group were actually the nation鈥檚 pediatric professional organization. It was not.

The FRC鈥檚 reposted material is completely baseless and taken straight from some of the country鈥檚 most notorious gay-bashers. Take, for example, McEwen points out that the piece cites the work of 鈥渞esearcher鈥� 鈥�to make the case that same-sex household are not simply bad places to raise children, but actually places them in danger (by making them susceptible to incest) 鈥� an assertion refuted by more credible researchers and medical bodies.鈥� The piece is back up on the FRC site with no disclaimer.

Cameron is an infamous anti-gay propagandist whose one-man statistical chop shop, the Family Research Institute, churns out hate literature masquerading as legitimate science. His work has been rejected by both the American Psychological Association and the American Sociological Association. With these repostings, it seems clear that the FRC鈥檚 anti-gay propaganda offensive against the LGBT community won鈥檛 be letting up any time soon 鈥� and that the FRC would in fact rather malign individuals than have an honest debate on the issues.
