Recently, a bizarre NARTH therapist, Dr. James E. Phelan, has been posting to this site.
Ex-Gay Watch has been following his strange actions, since he wrote a disquieting blog item about having “one-two drop kicked the hell out of” a man in the Columbus Marathon. It seems Phelan had heckled a gay group, one of many who had gathered alongside the road to cheer the runners on. The victim of his drop kick had protested this by allegedly shoving Phelan. No one Ex-Gay Watch contacted remembered such an event so they can’t confirm what happened. Phelan himself confided that the police had not been notified.
After this disturbing incident, Ex-Gay Watch discovered that Phelan’s name was no longer appearing on the Exodus International referral list of ex-gay ministries and therapists. He was listed there when this story broke last month, but not now. Exodus has not yet responded to Ex-Gay Watch's request for more information.
Phelan posted a series of strange and belligerent rants on the Ex-gay Watch site that are hardly befitting of a professional therapist. Based on his temperament, it appears that this man might be on the wrong side of the therapy couch. Here are a few excerpts of his quotes:
"I may joke and get heated and talk shit..."
"I resigned from that board because I felt she was pressuring me to make unnecessary apologies, and curve [sic] my language. I already have a mother and don’t need another one."
"Yup, Franc apparently it’s not just lesbians who don’t like “nasty little men”.
"David, as annoying as you can be...
Nice, a shit talking therapist who makes stereotypical jokes about lesbians, demeans mothers and is so outrageous, ex-gay groups demand that be curb his language. Of course, we are still waiting for Phelan to state his military fighting credentials so we can check with the Pentagon. Although he presents himself as the Religious Right's Rambo, he has so far refused to state his rank and Army Unit. Until he does so, he is permanently banned from this site. Is it just me, or are the ex-gay ministries getting more desperate and insane as they lose the culture war they launched?
