Kenny, apparently you aren’t familiar with what it’s like to have a job. That’s the only thing I can think of when savants like you leave comments to the effect of “git uh lahfe!” Uh, this is our j-o-b. And it’s an important one.

And dude? Truth and respect involve respect FOR the truth. Get your head out of the rear end of fundamentalist christian BS land, and you might understand that there is actually something called Reality. It’s scary; we know. But reality is not here to make your feel better. It simply is. You either accept it or you’re Michele Bachmann.

Except she has a job. Like us.

Oh Wayne…you are so out of the loop. Instead of trying to keep track of everyone who claims they are ex-gay…or doesn’t live like you want them to live…how about actually living! Oh…that is probably a judgement on you…hmmm, oh…that is exactly what you do with those you don’t agree with.

My only hope one day is that you actually figure it out…that truth and respect is each ones journey. Instead of living in the past and the hurts of the past…moving on is a mature response.

veda,

“God works in mysterious ways . . . I just wanted him to know God the way I did . . .”

Yes, God certainly “works in mysterious ways.” Since you “know God,” and are representing His Awesomeness with your comment here, I wonder why He didn’t see to it that you learned how to write a coherent sentence. If I were a god, I would insist that my promoters have some basic communication skills.

I’m sorry your husband isn’t sexually attracted to you, Veda.

[...] San Diego on March 6 of this year, but it appears that she did not give any of her usual workshops. Sometime after that, Fryrear was either separated, or she separated herself, from Focus On the Family. Circumstances [...]

Charlene, people only want to change their orientation because they’ve been guilted into thinking that it’s dirty and sinful and wrong. There’s no other reason to want to change it.

Isn’t it weird that all these “ex”-gay folks have a history with churches who think that “love the sinner, hate the sin” is an excuse for bigotry? That you outright call homosexuality a sin just shows that your church holds as much love for you as an abusive husband does for his wife.

I daresay the ones who do the damage are the ones who are driving people to be ex-gay by telling them that that an intrinsic part of who they are is sinful and wrong, wouldn’t you agree?

And Charlene, if the people in your church had any real love for you they’d have accepted you as you are instead of coercing you into pretending to be what they want – they don’t give a damn about you, they are utterly self-centred and only love your acting like a heterosexual.

If you were not a closet case, Charlene, you would not be making all these comments. Like Rekers, you are consumed by an interest in homosexuality. Hmmm….I wonder why?
