Discredited Paul Cameron Continues to Depict Gays as Predators

One thing that has continually amazed me is that among the "godly folk" one can be an "expert" or "researcher" even though one has absolutely no credentials to legitimize ones claims.  Worse yet, one can have been thrown out of numerous reputable associations for fraudulent work and the dissemination of out right lies, yet still be heralded as a respected "expert" by Christofascist circles.  A case in point? Paul Cameron who was thrown out of every legitimate association he had belonged to almost 30 years ago and who was found by one federal judge to be pushing fraudulent research.  Right Wing Watch looks at the lies and poison Cameroun continues to peddle, including the claim that gays prey on children.  Here are excerpts:
The “Pray In Jesus Name” program on Tuesday featured the first segment in a multi-part, in-person interview that host Gordon Klingenschmitt conducted with notorious anti-gay “researcher” Paul Cameron of the Family Research Institute and it turned out to be every bit as crazy as one would expect an interview between an anti-gay exorcist and an advocate for executing gays to be.

Klingenschmitt, who is currently the Republican nominee for a seat in the Colorado state legislature, asked Cameron if gay people “use molestation as a recruiting tool,” and Cameron assured him that they most certainly do.

“Homosexuals, from the get-go, as long as we have recorded history, have used the molestation of boys as a way to recruit to homosexuality,” Cameron declared, claiming that his “studies” have found that sixty percent of boys who reported that their first sexual experience was a same-sex experience grow up to be gay.

“So this is a tremendous recruitment tool,” he said. “If a gay can get to your son first, the chances are about 50-50, as near as we can tell, that your son is going to be a practicing homosexual to some degree.”
As I have said before, no on lies like the "godly Christian" crowd.
