“The homosexual push for ‘equal’ marriage,” otherwise known as genderless marriage, can only lead to a ban on heterosexual rights.

“Ex-gay” Pastor Stephen Bennett was an alcoholic and a drug dealer. Because he was a homosexual and for no other reason. And now he’d like you to pay him to torture LGBT children.

“Children all over the world, including my two children are fans of Toy Story and to see a character like that [Woody] endorsing something that at this point children have no need to know about, it’s disappointing.

As today’s Day Of Silence occurs at the nation’s schools, the self-hating homosexuals at PFOX are demanding recognition as a sexual orientation other than straight or gay. “If you’re going to worry about sexual orientation non-discrimination and pick a day every year to host it, shouldn’t that include all sexual orientations, such as former homosexuals,” the PFOX executive director questions. …

From Wayne Besen at Truth Wins Out. Every now and again we highlight “ex-gay” activists who disappear from the scene. One such individual is Mike Ensley, who was laid off from Exodus in 2008. For those who do not remember, Ensley was the group’s “Youth Analyst”, with the insidious role of brainwashing young people. He has now reinvented himself as …
