Uh, yeah. It's not like everyone who shops at Walmart is uneducated and stupid. That's just a stereotype.

Wait, this is confusing. Andrew Graham wrote a book called Captain of My Soul, about leaving the gay. That one is not in Walmart, or reviewed on Amazon.

Andrew's mother wrote this children's book, Chased by an Elephant: The Gospel Truth About Today’s Stampeding Sexuality, "for LDS families." This one is in Walmarts "in the Intermountain West". This one is at Amazon.... sad, quiet reviews.

Andrew's mom also wrote a book directly about herself -- ah, about Andrew: My Darling from the Lions: A Boy Falls to Homosexuality, a Mother Turns to God, a Family Is Changed Forever.

Andrew's father "is the president of a virulently anti-gay group called Standard of Liberty." (quote source: Minanville I've Fallen For Another Man And I Can't Get Up! | The Daily Feed | Minyanville.com)

Standard of Liberty's site. They are a Mormon group. Some of the very long front page is about Glenn Beck's recent rally, the rest is on and on and on about the you-know-what.

The Grahams also have for sale Wild Elephant, the Gospel Truth about Today's Stampeding Sexuality, "written especially for the non-LDS, general Christian family". Not at Walmart yet.

Best part of the long, long, long front page of Standards of Liberty:

My Conversation about Homosexuality with a Student Journalist at Brigham Young University, and My Rejected Articles, by Stephen Graham (Andrew's dad)

Are there any children's books on how to avoid the corruption and idiocy of being apart of organized religion? If not, I need to get start writing. I am a recovering Catholic and would love to make people wake up and use that brain they have.

Recovering Catholics are a group unto themselves and should not blame other denominations for what's wrong with theirs. I'm no fan of "organized religion", but faith does not automatically mean "organized religion". However, RC definitely is organized religion as are many other mainline denominations.
