I’d like to date and marry your son. I’m sure you’ll recognize that I can change from being a lesbian to wholeheartedly heterosexual. I’m certain I can make him happy and that I’ll be str8 forever.

I have a gay friend who’d like to date your daughter as well. I’m sure you could change him too. He’s committed to changing his ways too – God be willing!

What do you think? Ready to take a chance?

You betcha!

Whatever else this is, it sure as hell isn’t a scientific journal.

While there may be problems associated with homosexuality, there is only the problems that society gives us. When we learn to accept ourselves for who we are, then we don’t have any problems relating to our homosexuality.

I have tried to change. It did not work. I tried being with girls, nothing made me as happy as being with another man. I am living proof that homosexuality is not like ANYTHING that “NARTH” says it is. I don’t need any proof of it either, because I AM the proof.

I just did a little research and found that this “Peer reviewed scientific Journal” is “The Electronic Journal of Human Sexuality”.

That journal is an unnaccredited vocational school that endorses the sale of penis enhancement pills.

Their statement: “The only products for which the Institute has granted a license for these names to be used are: Vigorex forte and Vigorex femme (US trademarks); Passion’s Fire; Pleasure; Nutrisex; ProformRX; Improvex and Climatique.”

Here is where I found the article: http://www.tips-q.com/1064151-pray-away-gay-and-penis-pills

Now it’s a pro-gay article, but the link to the journal’s website is right there in the article.

Of course, there is also a possibility that it could just be “the Journal of human sexuality” (without the word “electronic” word in it. Even still, that is a journal dealing in science from a Christian perspective. And of course, Christians are biased against homosexuality and would be inclined to say something like that about it.

You keep espousing all this, and you do not provide viable and reliable evidence to back it up. NARTH doesn’t have any “leading academics and therapists”.

By the way, what is this “peer-reviewed journal”?

I have known same-sex couples who were together for more than 25 years. I have also tried dating girls, but it did not work for me. I accepted myself as gay, and I am more happier than trying to fake being straight, trying to pretend I am attracted to girls, it was just unnatural for me. I resorted to cutting myself, and I even tried to hang myself over it. Homosexuality is just a part of who someone is, like heterosexuality. By trying to rip something out of you and shoving something in it’s place that don’t belong there, you cause problems, that’s why “ex gay” therapy is so harmful.

By the way “NARTH Scientific Advisory Committee” isn’t going to fool anyone but themselves. There have been numerous studies (much more than 600) and every respected mental health organization in existence (not just the American Psychological Association) which comprises of over 500,000 of the world’s best mental health professionals, say that homosexuality is NOT a mental illness, is not a choice, and is not abnormal for a minority of people.

Despite how convincing your argument may be (to some people anyway) the ones who pose that argument have their work cut out for them because they are going against so much.

I still find it amazing how “ex gay” activists can say that homosexuals (5% to 10% of the population) convinced the mental health community to consider homosexuality normal when like 60% of the population is against homosexuality. Yet, try as they might, that 60% cannot overturn the decision made over 35 years ago.

No amount of whining and complaining about how “homosexuality is wrong” “homosexualty is abnormal” for 35 years by 60% of the population can reverse the conclusion that homosexuality is not abnormal. Gee, I wonder why??

The study, What Research Shows: NARTH’s Response to the American Psychological Associations Claims on Homosexuality, examines over 100 years of professional and scientific literature as well as over 600 reports from clinicians, researchers, and former clients principally published in professional and peer-reviewed journals.

This research, assembled over a period of eighteen months by three of the leading academics and therapists in the field and under the direction of the NARTH Scientific Advisory Committee, refutes claims made by some factions of the American Psychological Association and several other professional mental health organizations.
