recorded phone calls from anti-gay phone company ...
The following are phone calls recorded by the owner of Mr. S Leather, an adult-oriented fetish store in San Francisco.

From their website:

NTI 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 organisation 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. But enjoy the calls.

Here are links to three recorded calls.
It's hilarious listening to the Mr. S guy playing along.

2. fun stuff, huh?
First one is the funniest. Second one is a little lacking.

Third has some good moments like:

"They want to teach their employees to accept gays?
Are they mad ... future ... robots?"

3. It is funny
the sad thing is that these folks wouldn't be making these calls if it wasn't profitable. A good percentage of people probably take it seriously and respond to them. :(

4. yes ...
Of that I have no doubt.

I wonder why they kept calling over and over again.
