"It's a bit puzzling," said Wilson. "The ministry of Metropolitan Community Churches is so different from that of James Dobson. His group tends to focus on one kind of family, what they often mistakenly call the "traditional family."

This woman is so fake on so many levels. Her coy-fake "it's a bit puzzling" (as to why Dobson would be upset with the name grab), and her deliberate-fake use of the word "mistakenly" ("Dobson's group tends to focus on one kind of family, what they often mistakenly call the 'traditional family'").

The traditional family is called that for a reason - because it is. It's the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender families that are not traditional.

"Even though many of our views are diametrically opposed, apparently Dobson's organization feels the name of Metropolitan Community Church's new campaign could create confusion for people," she added.

Which she intended.

However, it seems MCC had intentionally chosen the name as an ironic play on Dobson's organization.

Oops, looks like she's been outed.

"While our denomination is gathered in Washington, D.C., today, several of us from MCC Boston are joining with others to hold a prayer vigil outside Focus on the Family's program "Love Won Out" – an ex-gay conference here in Boston. ..."

Looks like she's just trying to get some publicity for herself and her group.

"Please remember us today as we continue the struggle here in Boston against religious homophobia and discrimination."

Oh, please. Religious homophobia? Does she even know that homosexuality is not spoken of kindly in the Bible? I guess religious homophobia and discrimination don't apply to her, since she was just installed as the new "Bishop" of the MCC. What a fake.
