James Dobson’s God is a child abuser, & so is Jerry Prevo’s
Max Blumenthal’s new book Republican Gomorrah talks among other things about corporal punishment in Christianist practices of child discipline — practices taught by Focus on the Family leader James Dobson and, at least in 1985, Anchorage Baptist Temple pastor Jerry Prevo. Continue reading
Christianist, defined
I first used this term in the post “The new Carrie Prejean?” I’m using often enough that it seems helpful to break the definition I used there out into a separate post. Christianist is a term I first heard from … Continue reading
The new Carrie Prejean?
In what looks like another of last Tuesday’s ploys by Prevo & company, an obvious attempt to bait LGBT people & our allies into turning the newly-crowned Mrs. Alaska United States® into another Carrie Prejean, martyr of the religious right. Continue reading

My letter to the Anchorage Assembly

Prevo's devil masks
Jerry Prevo’s 1985 “devil costume debacle” illustrates that it’s not only against homosexuals that Prevo is willing to throw up red herrings, deceptions, and outright lies. Continue reading
