We spoke yesterday about the Minneapolis magazine, Lavender, which outed an anti-gay pastor. We hear what you, our listeners, had to say about the ethical issues surrounding the outing of an anti-gay pastor by Lavender Magazine. A journalist went undercover into a Christian 12-step program for gay men, where he saw Reverend Tom Brock, an anti-gay Lutherin pastor. Listeners, many of whom are in 12-step programs, responded to the story.
Gordon from Salt Lake City called in to say:
"While I agree with the ultimate end there with the hypocricy of the man. I'm also in a 12-step program and it's not just the organization that you're lying to. It's the other people in the program. When you go to a 12-step program you agree to a set of rules. To me, that's unethical."
