The following family-friendly cartoon — appropriate for schools — refutes the ex-gay myth with humor as well as fact.
Compare that presentation to antigay reparative-therapy advocates Julie Harren Hamilton and David Blakeslee, whose ex-gay video presentation peddles the unfounded myth that bad parenting, bad perceptions of parenting, and sexual abuse play a significant role in the development of sexual orientation in most gay individuals. PFOX promoted this ex-gay video via official e-mail this week.
Why might these particular antigay Christians be so antifamily — so desperate to blame family members — and so eager to believe the ignorant guesswork of one particular 19th-century secular psychotherapist named Sigmund Freud?

“Why might these particular antigay Christians be so antifamily…?”
Why, indeed? Any organization or ideology that seeks to persuade gay people that their natural, God-given sexuality is an illness or moral disorder, for which they should blame their parents, is anti-family par excellence.
