Religious Right Lies
AKOBEN: "war horn" is an African adinkra symbol of readiness to fight.
"Know the enemy and know yourself; in a hundred battles you will never be in peril. When you are ignorant of the enemy, but know yourself, your chances of winning or losing are equal. If ignorant both of your enemy and yourself, you are certain in every battle to be in peril." - Sun Tzu - The Art of War
"The very thing that is depressing about the gay rights movement is that while it is busy attempting to change hearts and minds it ignores the 200 pound elephant in the room i.e. how the religious right and so-called experts lie about GLBT lives. And that elephant is defectating all over their efforts." - Alvin McEwen
We are in a war with people who have more money and organization than we do. However what they don't have is truth. And anything built on a foundation of lies is going to crumble sooner or later.
American Goebbels: The lies of Paul Cameron - Paul Cameron is a sham artist whom the religious right have turned to time and time again to receive their lies about gays and lesbians. Though he has been exposed many times, the religious right still uses his studies, even in 2005. This report is the definitive piece on his history and connection with the religious right. http://webzoom.freewebs.com/palmettoumoja/Paul Cameron.pdf
Imp in Training: John R. Diggs's lies - Though Paul Cameron is a major player in religious right distortions, there are minor spreaders of their lies. John R. Diggs is a medical physician but he is also a bad researcher, as this study will prove. What is more sad is that he is an African-American. Maybe I should have called the piece Judas in Training because through his lies, he is harming his own people. http://webzoom.freewebs.com/palmettoumoja/John R. Diggs's lies.pdf
Six roads of deception - Religious conservative organizations have adopted discredited researcher Paul Cameron’s methodology in assembling their own studies about gays and lesbians. They generally reach the same anti-gay conclusions that he did with his studies, sometimes employing the same distortions. At least one of six characteristics are always present in all studies and research papers conducted by religious conservative organizations. These six characteristics spell out a disturbing pattern of deception and patterns of deception do not occur by accident:
Use of nonrepresentative or out of date studies/books to make generalizations and give misleading conclusions - http://webzoom.freewebs.com/palmettoumoja/Six Roads of Deception Part 1.pdf
