I think I’m on to the Rev. Donald Wildmon. The founder of the American Family Association isn’t really interested in stopping pornography. Rather, he’s presiding over a giant “porn-for-fundamentalists” empire in Tupelo, Miss.
Consider his recent bulletin expressing outrage and disgust over an “explicit, sickening” homosexual scene that aired on a program called “Dirt” on the F/X Channel. After ranting about the vileness of the scene, Wildmon helpfully provided a link to it on You Tube — thus ensuring that every one of his outraged legions would go watch it and get a cheap thrill.
Like all good porn kings, Wildmon knows how to hype his product. “Because it is so explicit, I could not even include a description of it here,” hyperventilated Wildmon. “I hope you will simply trust me. However, if you want to read our review of the scene, or to see the video of the scene, click here. Be forewarned, it is extremely graphic.”
I can just hear the neo-Puritans now: “Well, Rev. Don says it’s extremely graphic — but I guess I’d better take a look so I’m fully prepared to fight Satan and all of his works.”
Wildmon has spent the last 30 years ferreting out smut wherever he can find it. After checking to make sure the offensive material really is naughty, he promptly sends out an alert — directing his legions right to the best stuff. (“I nearly died when I saw the latest issue of ‘Down and Dirty College Sluts’! On page 7, there’s a photo of two young women on top of a desk — and you won’t BELIEVE what they are doing with that jar of raspberry preserves! Click here for the DISGUSTING photos — but be warned they are TRULY SHOCKING and REALLY, REALLY VILE!!! Don’t click unless you are prepared to see THE MOST PERVERTED PHOTOS OF COLLEGE-GIRL SLUTS EVER!”)
I get junk like this in my spam folder all of the time — only it comes from guys with names like “Ricco” operating out of Belarus.
What I’d like to know is, why hasn’t the Justice Department shut down Wildmon’s outfit? Wildmon and his fans may say they are doing “research,” but as far as I can tell, his group is nothing but a porn site for fundamentalists operating under the cover of a religious ministry.
