well, it kind of makes sense, given what I’ve read here about exodus . . . it seems to me that their main bread-and-butter are parents of queers, so they couldn’t very well be recommending inprisonment for their benefactors’ children.

Ahmanson – Fieldstead – Schmierer (Fieldstead employee & Exodus board member) – Exodus…. it’s the money. Schmierer might be an Episcopalian whose parish has placed itself under the auspices of the Ugandan bishop (archdiocese). Ahmanson, who has given money to Exodus [http://blogs.ocweekly.com/navelgazing/gimme-that-oc-religion/is-howard-f-ahmanson-reading-n/], was a member of such an Orange county Episcopalian church – St. James Anglican Church of the Archdiocese of Uganda [http://blogs.ocweekly.com/navelgazing/gimme-that-oc-religion/is-howard-f-ahmanson-reading-n/]. Should Schmierer also have such a connection then he was appearing in Uganda perhaps at the behest of his Ugandan bishop.

It’s the money.

“alternative message that encompasses a compassionate, biblical view of homosexuality,” How can you present a compassionate view and NOT address the unspeakable discrimination and hatred that was the driving force of this conference?
