ArchivedHow could you spread so much hate about gays?I don't happen to think I am wrong. My faith does not vilify gay people; some of my faith vilify gay people as do all major religions in the world. I lived as an openly gay man for most of my adult life, so your lack of understanding as to why some choose to change their orientation is lacking. Feeling powerful, desperate, and staging a last ditch effort is not our purpose. Disseminating information for those seeking information on changing their sexual orientation is our purpose as well as countering the anti-Christian propaganda of those who would eliminate our First Amendment rights to freedom of speech and religion. AngelBaby wants to stand on the arbitrary decisions of a professional organization that has never fully researched homosexuality and its root causes. If they had they would understand that some men and women have changed in spite of their pro-gay stance. Any man or woman who has any desire to live a normal life after the transformation of their sexuality will keep the change to themselves, therefore, real verifiable statistics are not available for these “professionals” to see. Why? Because they refuse to seek real statistics as these could prove them wrong and cause them some major embarrassment. BTW, AngelBaby get a copy of the Jan/Feb issue of Psychology Today and you will find the DSM III does include guidelines for counseling those seeking to change their sexual orientation. You will also find that the editor of Psychology Today would like to revisit this whole issue with some real research and peer reviewed studies, a proposal that hits gay activists where they live – a real scientific study could help the ex-gay movement and hurt them. Check the Internet for ex-ex-gay’s comments and you will always find an un-named Christian ministry as the source of additional pain and self-hate. They make a big deal of those who fail and then denigrate those of us who have succeeded by calling us weak individuals living a lie for social, family, and religious acceptance. This is a lie they perpetrate so the real truth is obfuscated for personal reasons. Not all gay men and lesbian women want to change; but why denigrate those who do? The one aspect of this issues the gay activists refuse to see is that tolerance is a two way street. They want us to tolerate them while they refuse to tolerate those of dissenting opinions based on experience, not rhetoric, fear, bigotry, or prejudice. I have to many gay friends to vilify a life I understand and lived, so take your accusations to Falwell or Robertson not here. |
