anyone else hear about this? real? fake? either way it's about the most jacked thing I've heard in a long time...

anti-gay phone company

this may be too much like politics but I don't think it's right that a company is exploiting the hate and beliefs of a conservitive group for money, and also promoting their beliefs...

a comedian has them on tape too, he basically eggs the telemarketers on and gets them to say some outrageous crap!... which makes it sound sketchy, but damn the tapes are funny...

here's more background:
ANTI GAY PHONE COMPANY
Starting in late December I began to get phone calls from what I thought was a phone company (United American Technologies) trying to get me to switch from my phone company to a Christian one that didn’t support gay marriage and pornography. It was so weird and creepy that I decided to record them. There are three calls. It turns out that they are from a non-profit that works with United American Technologies and calls people on their behalf. UAT then donates money to them. I think this non-profit stopped making these calls, but UAT still has many other organizations making the calls for them I believe. Though they claimed to donate 10% of their profits to ministries I think the money actually went into an Oklahoma Republican political campaign, but some of it may go to Churches and ministries, I’m not sure. The whole thing is confusing and spooky.

so I looked up UAT...
