		<description>Oh Attmay,

You would prescribe killing a group of people, based on some silly book of fictional fairy tales.  

I'm sorry you're a lunatic.</description>

		<description>this whole organization(more like a cult) sickens me. homosexuality isnt "demonic" or so called "wicked" it's perfectly normal. love is love no matter the gender. sure, there are some homosexuals out there that im sure are horrible people, but that doesn't mean you have to hate us all.

and the way this place is set up sickens me more. on the outside you appear to be "gay-friendly" but on the inside, you are hateful towards them (which is a sin fyi, since this place is so Christian-like) once you get homosexuals in your grash  you rip them to shreads; brinwash them into becoming straight only because you fear it.

since i am gay, and you thing homosexuality is so "satanic" and "wicked" i say burn in the pits of hell, where you and i belong.</description>

		<description>[...] Well, one show has moved out of town (actually it was closer to Black Mountain and about 18 miles or so up the valley from downtown Asheville). No loss. Just another &#8220;circus&#8221; whose methods are also certainly questionable. You can read &#8220;the reviews&#8221; from Pam Spaulding and Wayne Besen. [...]</description>

		<description>Why isn't this stuff more widely reported? I haven't heard about this in the mainstream media. Where can I learn more? Thanks</description>

		<description>Emproph, have you noticed that whenever somebody turns a camera/mic towards Randy, he gets this fake huge (possibly psychotic or drug-induced) smile on his face, as if he's never been in front of a camera before in his life?</description>

		<description>From the &lt;a href="http://a1135.g.akamai.net/f/1135/18227/1h/cchannel.download.akamai.com/18227/podcast/ASHEVILLE" rel="nofollow"&gt;radio talk show&lt;/a&gt; @ the 5:15 mark:

&lt;I&gt;&lt;b&gt;Matt Mittan:&lt;/b&gt; One of the things that was brought up yesterday in our conversation with the representative from Truth Wins Out, was that Exodus is actually more about political agendas, that it’s a political machine, rather than a human conversion of sexual attraction or behavior, or anything like that. But it was more of a political operation. How would you counter that?

&lt;b&gt;Randy Thomas:&lt;/b&gt; Well I think the representative from T-W-O needs to update his talking points, because we haven’t done anything really overtly political in quite awhile. If you look at our press releases I believe there’s been a handful over the past two years. &lt;b&gt;But while we may speak to the issues of marriage or hate crimes or maybe even ENDA, that is a fraction of what we’re about and what we do&lt;/b&gt;. We’re an organization of 206 member agencies. We have a lot on our plate, and I think he likes to focus on that because it plays well to his own constituents.&lt;/I&gt;
--
So according to Randy Thomas of Exodus International, lobbying to prevent us from having the right to legally wed, lobbying against hate crime legislation in the effort TO PREVENT THE DISCOURAGEMENT OF PHYSICAL VIOLENCE AGAINST US, or lobbying to prevent us from enjoying job security -- by painting us all as God-mocking child-molesting drug-crazed disease-ridden sex-fiends - by choice, all in the name of Jesus, is just a "fraction" of what they’re all about and what they do. And that the only reason Wayne would have to "focus" on that fact is because it "plays well." 

As though we "constituents" who are victimized daily by the political efforts -- past and present -- of Exodus International actually need playing &lt;I&gt;to&lt;/I&gt;.

All in a day’s work, huh Randy?</description>

		<description>When it comes to Randy and Alan, they most certainly haven't "left the gay lifestyle" - that's another lie.  Without gay people, they'd have no job.  And I'd bet if Exodus ever drops them, they'll go straight onto disability.  Randy would likely qualify, like Homer Simpson, on the episode where he's wearing a muumuu.  

A little off topic, Wayne - would be cool if you could check into this silly statement recently made by everyone's favorite quack:

"If people could make themeselve half animals Im sure they would"

DL Foster REALLY believes people want to be like The Wuzzles?  

Maybe you should start a Wuzzles game, and ask everyone what they'd like to be?

Me, personally - I'd have to say I'd like to be half peacock, and half bunny rabbit.</description>
