George Alan Rekers, a founding member of the Family Research Council with James Dobson and Amandi Nicholi Jr., was caught returning home from a European vacation in mid-April with a young man he hired on rentboy.com, the Miami New Times reports:

"On April 13, the "rent boy" (whom we'll call Lucien) arrived at Miami International Airport on Iberian Airlines Flight 6123, after a ten-day, fully subsidized trip to Europe. He was soon followed out of customs by an old man with an atavistic mustache and a desperate blond comb-over, pushing an overburdened baggage cart.

That man was George Alan Rekers, of North Miami — the callboy's client and, as it happens, one of America's most prominent anti-gay activists. Rekers, a Baptist minister who is a leading scholar for the Christian right, left the terminal with his gay escort, looking a bit discomfited when a picture of the two was snapped with a hot-pink digital camera.

Reached by New Times before a trip to Bermuda, Rekers said he learned Lucien was a prostitute only midway through their vacation. "I had surgery," Rekers said, "and I can't lift luggage. That's why I hired him." (Though medical problems didn't stop him from pushing the tottering baggage cart through MIA.)

The louder they yell the more they have to hide. Excuse me while I enjoy a little schadenfreude.....

4. Oh there are some doozies.....

"This is a classic case... of bad home hair coloring."


"I am not gay, I have never been gay. I love my wife, but I have trouble lifting luggage."

"Luggage is a Gateway Drug."

13. "I have trouble lifting luggage"...

Fundie speak for "I hired someone to handle my package". :evilgrin:

[XOKCowboy]

5. Did you read his reply to a commenter?

He was just showing "Lucien" the error of his ways and was counseling him on how to stop being gay. Uhhh Ya Right!

[complain jane]

20. Oh for christ sakes n/t

[MadMaddie]

3. More pathetic than the act itself is their excuses!!

[Touchdown]

22. I don't think you meant it that way

Unless you really do think gay sex is pathetic. :shrug:

Btw; I can assure you, there's nothing less pathetic or more exiting than gay sex!

[HillWilliam]

30. If he thinks gay sex is pathetic

he's obviously been doing it wrong! :rofl:

[XOKCowboy]

35. I think that the poster meant that the hypocrisy..

is pathetic. At least I hope so.

[tavalon]

6. It's not about being gay, it's about being a hypocrite.

[MindandSoul]

10. +100! You are so right! Nothing wrong with being gay. . .everything wrong about

being a self-righteous hypocrit!

[tavalon]

12. A self righteous hypocrite who rails against the very thing he practices

It would be like me railing against bigamy. No matter how you might feel about bigamy, it would be damn cheeky of me to rail against it since I live in a triad (that's bigamy for those of you confused)

Needless to say, I support responsible non-monogamy in all of it's forms.

[Richard Steele]

15. And it's always hypocrites who make the most noise. Psyche 101. nm

[MindandSoul]

25. Yep!. . . they think that if they shout loud enough and point the finger with

enough firmness. . .no one will dare question them!

[Lavender Blue]

7. Halfway through the vacation he discovered Lucien was a prostitute....uh, How?

eek

[yellerpup]

8. A sweet little whisper...

"that costs extra."

edit to add quotation marks

[complain jane]

21. LOL

[XOKCowboy]

9. That part doesn't make sense....

He didn't know that Rent Boy was a gay escort site? Also his "excuse" is that he was showing "Lucien" the error of his ways and was trying to cure his homosexuality through biblical teachings. I love it when these scumbags try to lie their way out of their hypocrisy.

32. When the "rentboy" showed an amazing aptitude for salad-tossing.

[muntrv]

11. I am shocked, I tell ya, shocked!

[Lil Missy]

14. yawn

[AnnieBW]

16. When is it gonna be Fred Phelps?

With all of the screaming he and his do, I would not be surprised to find out that the old man has a few boys on the side, too.

[XOKCowboy]

17. Now that would be sweet...

He's just guilty of mental cruelty with his kids.

[complain jane]

18. Ehhhh....

I'd be surprised to hear about a few boys.

I'd be far less surprised to hear about many, many, many boys; animals, drugs, satanism, insanity, multiple personalities, dungeons, underground tunnels, human trafficking, bestiality, torture and snuff films.

[walldude]

27. Phelps would make sure he's not caught...

He probably has a private little cemetery somewhere...

[harry_pothead]

19. This is why the religious right is afraid of gays all coming out of the closet...

...once that happens, they are gonna have took elsewhere to find their leaders.

[MindandSoul]

26. Yes! Could you imagine the stories that could be told???

[Touchdown]

23. Well, that never happens!

:hide:

[XOKCowboy]

24. Yeah total surprise huh? nt

[Touchdown]

28. OK You can't get any more creepy than this!

Look at the strong Lumberjack Daddy, spreading his leg for the eager boy to explore.:puke::rofl:

Rekers wrote that in 1982.

[XOKCowboy]

34. WOW!

He's got a HUGE closet he's living in doesn't he?

[Stevenmarc]

29. It was an overseas teabagging junket

[Touchdown]

31. K'd. Your losing to the other thread about Reker!

we need two on the front page!:rofl:

[XOKCowboy]

33. Hey Thanks!

Jeez a guy's gotta work sometime!

I now see that Tony Perkins has renounced Rekers while seeming to not to know who he is. This gets better and better.

[alp227]

36. When will the ex-gay/"homosexuality is a choice" crowd just give it up already?

Add Rekers to the list of notable self-proclaimed "ex-gays" who relapsed. And consider the junk studies funded by the religious right that try giving credibility to the theory that sexual orientation is a choice.
