Perhaps someone should organize a letter writing / email campaign to let Oprah know of the hateful message the group is promoting in thier advertisements. I cannot believe she would allow thier ill will to be spread via her show.
Hateful? Have you checked out the link to http://www.troubledwith.com , the website that's on the stress balls? There are a variety of things in there that even YOU, yes, the one reading this, could benefit from.
Anonymous #2, yeah I checked out troubledwith.com's pages on homosexuality and found them to contain exactly the kind of pro-ex-gay right-wing christian stuff I expected. The views expressed their are based heavily on the old Freudian hypothesies about the cause of homosexuality that have been abandoned by the American Psychological Association because they have no real scientific basis. Homosexuality is probably caused by a mix of genetic, developmental and environmental causes, but we will have to wait and see what scientists discover before we really know. However, the causes don't matter so much as the fact that being gay is not a bad thing. Gays and lesbians are everywhere in our society and contribute more good than bad. Whether Dobson, Robertson, Fallwell and their misguided followers like it or not, gays and lesbians deserve to be treated fairly by society so that they can be the best people that they can be, without giving up their rights to their preferred sexual orientations.
