This is so sad.

And what does he do to gay men who’ve had good relationships with their mothers and fathers?

All we have is Alan Chamber’s word that he did.

And that’s about as sincere, as trustworthy, as an evangelist’s smile.

Speaking of which… Exodus under Alan’s firm hand is certainly offering a lot of opportunity for Scott Lively — more than he has had in years, frankly.

How many times does ‘Exodus’ need to get involved in this sort of thing before they will admit they are (in fact) coldly, blatantly, cruelly anti-gay?

While Cohen makes a living off his sexual reinterpretation, I don’t think that either PFOX or Exodus (other than a live-in program) charge fees, outlandish or otherwise.

Most are involved with the ex-gay movement because they believe that being gay is contrary to God’s will and therefore one should try to live as an overcomer of sin, submitting to God’s plan for heterosexuality.

L. Junius Brutus, I think you’ve just described the ex-gay movement in a nutshell. They make up answers because they aren’t comfortable with the real ones.

By welcoming back Cohen, I guess they are trying to project a more welcoming attitude towards Unification Church (aka Moonie) members as well.

Perhaps the other side of tolerance has to do with being nicer to cult members with ethical problems who engage on TV in what appears to be very inappropriate physical contact the people they cousel (or is it coach??).
