Extremism Won Out With Demagogue to Be Honored, Says TWO
NEW YORK - Truth Wins Out (TWO) assailed The Museum of Broadcast Communications today for announcing they would induct right wing extremist James Dobson into its Radio Hall of Fame. TWO vowed to protest the annual awards dinner, the second Saturday in November, to inform the world of Dobson's shameful and bigoted record.
"It is an affront for the Radio Hall of Fame to honor James Dobson, a right wing demagogue, who built his radio empire on the backs of gay and lesbian people," said Wayne Besen, Executive Director of Truth Wins Out. "We vow to stand up and protest this outrageous insult and let the world know that Dobson is a dishonest, hatemongering ideologue."
Dobson told The Daily Oklahoman on Oct. 23, 2004, "Homosexuals are not monogamous. They want to destroy the institution of marriage. It will destroy marriage. It will destroy the Earth."
In the past two years, at least seven researchers have accused Dobson of manipulating or cherry picking their results to back his anti-gay teachings. Letters and videos documenting the concerns of these respected professors can be viewed at TruthWinsOut.org and RespectMyResearch.org.
Dobson also profits from intolerance. He founded a ministry, Love Won Out, that promises to "cure" homosexuals -- even though the so-called "ex-gay" leader of Love Won Out, John Paulk, was photographed in a gay bar. Dobson also continues to promote dishonest psychological theories about gay people that are rejected by every respected medical and mental health association in America, including the American Psychological Association and the American Psychiatric Association.
Truth Wins Out is a non-profit organization that counters right wing propaganda, exposes the "ex-gay" myth and educates America about gay life. For more information, visit www.TruthWinsOut.org.

Actually Mr. Dobson, I am gay and monogamous.
But I might still destroy the earth. I haven't really decided yet.

Wayne is there some way you can check to see if these people actually have theology degrees? People like Dobson, Hagee and Rod Parsley? They call themselves Pastors and I can't belive they even know what the word even means!
James Dobson isn't a pastor and doesn't claim to be.
Hagee and Parsley are both senior pastors at their respective churches.
A pastor is just a title for a church authority in Protestant Christianity. That's exactly what Hagee and Parsley are.
And I'm sorry, but "theology degrees?" Bwa ha ha ha ha!!!
You make it sound like there's some credible level of competency to work toward; as if theology isn't just made up nonsense and fairy tales to begin with.

Actually it is much richer and more complicated than just studying fairytales. It involves philosophy, history etc. and contains some remarkably intelligent scholars.
