There’s hope for people who are trapped in the homosexual lifestyle or who suffer from unwanted same-sex attraction. Part of our fallen condition as humans is that we are all subject to sin. Those who know the Savior of the world, Jesus Christ, are no better or worse than those who engage in homosexual sin.
But through the loving and redemptive power of Jesus Christ, we can all find salvation from sin. So can homosexuals.“Gayness” is not an “immutable” or unchangeable condition as homosexual apologists would have you believe. People can find freedom from homosexual behaviors and even from same-sex attractions. It’s not easy, but untold thousands of former homosexuals have done it.
There’s also hope in the ongoing battle between the “gay” agenda and our national moral integrity. Concerned Women for America (CWA) endeavors on a daily basis to counter this destructive movement throughout all facets of culture and public policy.
With God’s help, we can turn back the tide of sexual and moral relativism that has both permeated our society and offended our founding principles.

From the same thread...
On December 25, 800 AD, King Charlemagne gave Pope Leo III a gift of Jesus's preserved foreskin. This religious relic, a "holy prepuce", was later lost.
This is just creepy. Didn't the Big J need his foreskin when he ascended into Heaven?!
So how long's it been since you, Enochs Fire, last smoked the skin pipe? You seem to know all about converting away from homosexuality so I ask, again, how long has it been and how's that working for you?
@969547, since Jesus was Jewish, it would've been lopped off at his bris...
The destructive movement is the holier-than-thou attitude towards an archaic and by and large constantly-redefined concept of 'sin.'
The only reason why people would want to find freedom from homosexual behaviors and same-sex attraction would be to stop being persecuted by people like Eunuch's Fire. If you're doing something, enjoying it, and not hurting anybody in the process, why should it matter to anyone else what you're doing, how you're doing it, and/or who you're doing it with? Is this that much of a difficult concept for these fundies?
Please stop hiding your hatred of anything different than you behind a facade of wanting to help, Enoch's Fire, we don't care any more now than we did when you people were more forthright.
And if you REALLY thought this, then where is your campaign to convert people eating shrimp away from their sinful ways?
There’s hope for people who are trapped in the fundamentalist lifestyle or who suffer from unwanted ignorance. Part of our imperfect condition as humans is that we are all subject to ignorance. Those who know reason are no better or worse than those who engage in fundamentalism.
But through the power of reason, we can all find salvation from fundamentalism. So can fundamentalists. Fundamentalism is not an “immutable” or unchangeable condition as fundamentalist apologists would have you believe. People can find freedom from fundamentalist behaviors and even from ignorance. It’s not easy, but untold thousands of former fundamentalists have done it.
There’s also hope in the ongoing battle between the fundamentalist agenda and our national free society. Concerned Sane People for America (CSPA) endeavors on a daily basis to counter this destructive movement throughout all facets of culture and public policy.
With reason’s help, we can turn back the tide of logical and factual relativism that has both permeated our society and offended our founding principles.
"This is just creepy. Didn't the Big J need his foreskin when he ascended into Heaven?!"
Apparently he needs his penis, because all the fundies are begging and praying for Jesus to "come."
Apologist? No. I'm an I-don't-care-what-gender-my-friends-love-ist.
I'm also sick to death about this bullshit idea of the gay agenda. I suppose suffragists had an agenda, too?
People are born as homosexuals, just as they are born as blueeyed or lactos intollerant.
What is a "homosexual apologist"? Sounds painful.
Yeah, "untold" is the word, you haven't found one single person who was really, really "cured", have you?
How many can with absolute certainty say they have never ever found a person of the same sex even sligtly aluring? I know I can't.
Most of us humans are probably more or less bisexual. Nature would rather have us happy with someone (regardless of whom) than misserable alone.
What is the gay agenda? I know several gays, but they have never spoke, or even whispered about an agenda.
It's not your business anyway, what people do in the privacy of their own home and hearts.
who suffer from unwanted same-sex attraction
LOL
This sounds like some cheesy infomercial. "Do you suffer from unwanted same-sex attraction?" (black and white scene of a sad-looking guy from the fifties looking at a beautiful girl on the beach but imagining a guy in a speedo) "Don't give up hope! You can Pray Away That Gay!" (color scene of same guy in a hot tub with several buxom models, laughing and sharing glasses of champagne) "Just call 1-800-IMSTRAIT, Jesus Christ is waiting for your call!"
There is no such thing as "sin", just like there is no such thing as a moral absolute.
As for homosexuality being a "destructive movement": ever since human beings evolved there have been people who preferred same sex relationships and we seem to have done ok so far (apart from when religious fundamentalist gained control over societies and retarded our cultural and technological development, cf. the Dark Ages).
Apparently he needs his penis, because all the fundies are begging and praying for Jesus to "come."
Oh, that's bad! Even creepier question: Why does the Big J even need a schwank?! His conception through the "Virgin" Mary was immaculate so even His Dad didn't get a piece. So why does Jesus have one? Probably because God also created Mary Magdeline. >:-) heh heh heh...
There’s hope for people who are trapped in the Fundie lifestyle or who suffer from unwanted thinking. Part of our intellectual condition as humans is that we are born to use our brains. Those who cling to the Savior of the world, Jesus Christ, and the bible are no better than those who engage in reason and logical thinking.
But through the loving and redemptive power of being unbigoted and accepting, we can all find salvation from unfounded prejudice. So can those who hate homosexuals. “Gayness” is an “immutable” and unchangeable condition as homosexuals and the medical profession would have you believe.
People can find freedom from homosexual discrimination and bigotry and even accept same-sex attractions, by being logical and not judgemental. It’s not easy, but untold thousands of former fundies have done it.
There’s also hope in the ongoing battle between the “gay” agenda and fundie morality.

FIXED
All that those "ex-gay ministries" MIGHT have accomplished is turning some homosexuals into bisexuals.
Some aspects of sexuality are indeed an acquired taste, but once you acquire the taste you can't un-acquire it.
So how is the redemptive power measured? I invoked it until I was blue in the face. After quite a few years I finally decided it didn't exist as it never kicked in to de-gay me. And then I settled down to a normal life, got a partner - we're together getting on for four decades now. (Do fundie marriages last that long?) I've never seen a gay agenda, so please post one here.
As to 'untold homosexuals'...etc, tell that to Ted H. and please give your sources for such an outrageous assertion. I'm gay, and believe me, if such changes were possible and happening, the gay grapevine would be humming.
So you are lying for Jesus. Sinning for Jesus.
You are therefore a humbug and a hypocrite.
Now what was that Jesus said about hypocrites?

Why are you so conserned about human rights, but you do noting to protect hetrosexual marriages? Christianity has one of the highests religious divorce rates in America.
So, why is one abomination okay, the the other isn't?

Enochs, I'm not American. I've never taken an American history course. I've never read an American history textbook.
But even I know America was not founded on the principles you claim it was.
I always love how when they get bisexuals they saw having same-sex sex to have heterosexual sex they claim that person is "cured".
Seriously guys the only people you "cure" are the bisexuals and I doubt you even do that.
two questions come up ..
First, if you can pray the gay away then why in al the centuries it has ben tried it has never been documented to work.
And Second, why should I change just for your sake? Are you really so sure God has the same bigotries you do just because you read it in a book?
Well, Ted Haggard and many others have demonstrated that, in the best cases, you can just abstain. But again, that is not the end of same sex attraction.
According to the Testament of Solomon, here's how you dispel "unwanted same-sex attraction:"
Have someone say the following words into the left ear of the person feeling these urges: Melto Ardad Anaath.
There. That's it.
"but untold thousands of former homosexuals have done it"
So untold they don't exist.
Lie some more, you really want to suck a big cock, don't you?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
