I guess I must not be a Christian on the Right because I’ve never heard of him so clearly he wasn’t my “leader” since I didn’t follow.

How about outing all of the gay anchors in the news who use derisive homo-slurs like “teabagger” and tell us that “don’t ask don’t tell” is one of the pressing issues of the day. We should all KNOW as viewers why these issues are of utmost concernt to them. Why doesn’t the media “tell”?

I’ve never even heard of this George Rekers.

But, being what he apparently is, “ex-gay,” and doing what he apparently does, which is counsel homosexual males on coming out of homosexuality, I’d think he would have been targeted with some sort of effort to entrap and discredit him before now.

This story sounds a little too tailor-made for leftist media and militant gay activists on the one hand. On the other, maybe Reker actually is a fraud.

Hard to tell right now, but it does sound like a script right out of leftist bogeyman central casting. That makes me think we’re hearing a story that is at least in part a concoction.

Dr. Rekers has some pretty heavy credentials. I think we should reserve judgement until all the details come out. He could have just hired the guy as a legitimate assistant and not known of his sexual lifestyle choice.

Uh huh. Like I’d believe something called “Little Green Footballs.”

This started with the Miami Herald. They called him and allegedly he admitted hiring his assistant off the “Rentboy” site. That sounds credible to me. Maybe in some bizarre way he was trying to minister to the young man but the more probable explanation is the most obvious one. Let's not let the fact that this is on LGF and in the MSM cloud our judgment. This is probably what it looks like and, if so, the guy is a hypocrite deserving of criticism.

I've been a fundamentalist Christian for over 50 years (currently a Deacon in my church) and I've never heard of George Rekers. However, as you stated, this can't be good. At best, it gives the appearance of impropriety. At worst, it's an embarrassment for The Family Research Council and by association, Dr. James Dobson.

If Rekers really was 'renting' a 'boy' for homosexual sex, this will give the secular media and the Christian-haters an opportunity to point fingers and scream 'hypocrite!' at the top of their lungs as they try to smear every Christian that follows scripture and opposes homosexual behavior as a 'closeted homosexual'.

I hope this story is either a fabrication or somehow misinterpreted but if not, I agree, this can't be good. Not good at all. Satan never sleeps.

I’ll be worried when God changes His stance on homosexuality. Until then...

I think it says a lot about Charles Johnson that he is featuring this on his site “little green footballs”.
