SCEC Member Alvin McEwen Releases New Book
Holy Bullies and Headless Monsters on sale now

New book accuses religious right of distorting studies


September 18, 2007--According to a new book, there has been a disturbing campaign of misinformation waged against America’s gay community.

And the culprits are organizations collectively known as the religious right


“Groups like Concerned Women for America, the Family Research Council, and the Traditional Values Coalition all claim that homosexuality is a deadly lifestyle,” Alvin McEwen said. “This notion is used to give a secular reason to oppose pro-gay laws. However the data they cite to prove the so-called negative effects of homosexuality is the product of junk science, misrepresented studies, and outright lies.”

McEwen, a South Carolina native, spent two years looking at religious right studies pertaining to the gay community. He has put his findings in a book, Holy Bullies and Headless Monsters: Exposing the Lies of the Anti-Gay Industry, which is now available for sale.
