Rekers Redux

I spent a couple of minutes catching up on the comments at this post at Bilerico, which I linked to over the weekend.  It's worse than I thought.  In addition to the court's comments in In the Matter of the Adoption of John and James Doe, which I noted in my comment, another reader came up with a citation from Hunter vs. Arkansas, in which Rekers was found even more wanting as an expert witness.  And another commenter found a report titled The Christian World View of the Family that is frightening -- callous, pompous, smug, and downright cruel.  Pure Dominionist "take over the world" thinking.

It seems Rekers not only identified himself as a "child psychologist" to Jo-Vanni, he's actually been practicing some of this hokum on poor kids.  He should be arrested on charges of child endangerment.

I still think he's a seriously f**ked up person and should be taken out of circulation.  I do feel sorry for him, but then I feel sorry for lots of people who probably don't deserve it.  But the idea that people are routinely calling this charlatan to service as an expert witness on anything involving children is unbelievable.
