December 2004 - The Winter of our Discontent

Hello Church!
Have you seen it - the new Kinsey movie, by director Bill Condon (of the fabulous "Gods and Monster")? I haven't yet, but I *have* read the book - Kinsey's Sexual Behavior in the Human Male. It's an easy and fun read - Kinsey's witty barbs being one of the things legitimate critics complain about.

Alfred Kinsey, and Judith Reisman's Dirty Little Mind
The conservative Christian right has their collective panties in a wicked twist. Robert Knight, of Concerned Women for America compares Kinsey to Nazi Dr. Josef Mengele. Art Moore of WorldNetDaily.com claims Kinsey "...produced and directed the rape and torture of hundreds of infants and children."

The truth is, however, Kinsey's *only* method of gathering information was the interview - he asked questions. He never did one experiment, as the Christian right claims, on an adult or a child. There's one single source for all of the lies about Kinsey, and her name is Judith Reisman, usually described as a harmless Jewish grandmother. But she's more than that and I've exposed the career she's built on discrediting Kinsey. (Note to self - if you're going to build a career on trying to destroy someone else's, it's *much* easier if they're dead!) Read the story here.

How Can You Tell if You're From a Blue State or a Red State?
If you can find your state on a map of the US, then you're probably from a blue state, but if you're still not sure, test yourself. Do you think Martha Stewart should be in jail, or Christopher Lowell? Did your candidate have an arresting record, or a record number of arrests? Does your state produce America's Funniest Home Videos, or provide the tapes for the show? How do you measure up?
