Virulently anti-gay nutcase Robert “Gay Is Worse Than Incest” Gagnon, who regularly speaks at NOM affiliated events, will keynote the September “ex-gay” conference by the brand spanking new Restored Hope Network, which was apparently formed in reaction to Exodus International’s recent rejection of brainwashing and torture. Restored Hope Network (RHN) has recently been formed by leaders from throughout North America …

Alan Chambers: “I have to be honest and say, ‘Of course I have temptations. Of course I have attractions related to the same sex.’ But for over 15 years since I’ve been in a relationship with Leslie, my attraction is for her.” He adds, “Am I heterosexual? I don’t know. I’m not gay.” Since Chambers announced the end of his …

One Millions Moms is offering middle school students a free comic book version of the bible which includes extra hate for those unimpressed by the original. During this vital project, in a very effective and unique evangelism outreach, a “Truth For Youth” Bible (TFY), will be given to all teenagers who commit to give the Bibles to their unsaved friends …

Parent & Friends Of “Ex-Gays” are predictably quivering with anger over California’s proposed bill to ban the torture and brainwashing of LGBT children. PFOX writes to the bill’s main sponsor, CA Sen. Ted Lieu: Sponsoring legislation endorsed by the gay lobby to ensure that children only receive gay-affirming therapy is an act of childhood endangerment and an unconstitutional attempt to …

“In 2009, I was contacted by the blogger [Azariah Southworth] in response to an article I wrote about just that–that Christians must love people who experience sexual brokenness. We corresponded several times by email and text for a couple of weeks, some of them inappropriate. When I was traveling through a city near him, we met for dinner because we’d …

Thanks to NARTH and the Journey Into Manhood retreat, where he bro-hugged away all his girly ways. Or something. These days he only thinks about hot sweaty man sex 10% of the time.

The red-caped Catholic loons of Tradition Values Property took time out from training young boys how to kill infidel Muslims by holding another one of their weirdo-creepy-chanty protests in some strip mall where one of Obama’s “OPPRESSORS!” showed up out of nowhere to push them around. Yeeeeah, right. These things keep happening but somehow we never ever ever hear about …

IMPORTANT UPDATE: It appears the below quote was first published by the Christianist Charisma Magazine in 2004. Ex-Gay Watch speculates as to why the story is now appearing on the magazine’s front page with today’s date: “Is someone at the conservative Christian publication trying to sabotage him [Chambers] by bringing up his past words?” As always, infighting is funny. And …

Back in April I reported that former Exodus International chairman John Paulk had made some interesting changes to his Facebook profile. Yesterday Truth Wins Out took the story further: “Ex-gay” poster couple John and Anne Paulk may be Splitsville. Sources tell Truth Wins Out today that John has moved out of the couple’s Portland, Oregon home. Other sources in Portland …

“Alan, what you are saying is untrue. I have never said I could cure someone completely from homosexuality. All my books make it quite clear that homosexual attractions will persist to some degree throughout a person’s lifetime. Furthermore, I do not use heterosexual pornography with my clients. I do ask them (if they wish to do this; some clients do …

“Chambers has said he doesn’t believe a person can change his or her so-called sexual orientation. Now, there’s not anything like this invented term called ‘sexual orientation’ in Scripture in the first place, but then he also says that he still struggles himself with sexual feelings for other males. This shows very poor judgment as the leader of this ministry …

“The gay lifestyle is driven by sex, not love. But I didn’t realize that until God took me out of that lifestyle and placed me on the outside, so I could look in with clear eyes. Yeah, that’s right, God. The God I didn’t believe in. The God who never answered me when I prayed as a kid. I can’t …

The New York Times reports that more “ex-gay” ministries are moving to distance themselves from Exodus International, whose head Alan Chambers has admitted that reparative therapy never works. Mr. [David] Pickup, an officer of the National Association for Research and Therapy of Homosexuality [NARTH], composed of like-minded therapists, said reparative therapy had achieved profound changes for thousands of people, including …

“For 36 years, First Stone Ministries has been affiliated with Exodus International, a network of ministries that all proclaim freedom from homosexuality through relationship with Jesus Christ. Over the last several months, the leadership of First Stone Ministries has become increasingly aware of some changes in Exodus’s ideology and leadership that have resulted in us feeling we are unable to …

Thanks to the web sleuthing of a JMG reader, last night we learned Indiana’s Apostolic Truth Tabernacle is where that four year-old child was filmed singing Ain’t No Homos Gonna Make It To Heaven. Shortly after I posted that repulsive clip, I was contacted by several media outlets, including CNN, who now know its source. Contact details for Pastor Jeff …

Christian Love: It’s apparently an actual song and not only did they teach it to a four year-old, they proudly brought him up to the pulpit to perform it, generating whoops and a standing ovation from the congregation. Praise! Glory! Hit the link for the video if you can bear it. UPDATE: A mirrored copy was posted to the comments.

The “ex-gay” group PFOX has filed suit against the superintendent of a Maryland school district, claiming that by insulting their distribution of anti-gay flyers, he committed sexual orientation discrimination against them. SRSLY. From a PFOX press release: After PFOX distributed ex-gay flyers to high school students as part of the schools’ flyer distribution program for non-profit organizations, Superintendent Joshua Starr …
