‘Pray the gay away’ goes away: Exodus shuts down, leader apologizes on Oprah’s network

June 21, 2013 By Kathy Shaidle

LifeSiteNews:

Alan Chambers, 41, announced on Lisa Ling’s “Our America” program on the Oprah Winfrey network that he is “deeply sorry” for his involvement in promoting reparative therapies aimed at changing sexual preferences.  He now denounces reparative therapy as damaging and traumatic.

Just hours after Chambers’s apology was made public, Exodus International announced it would close its doors after three decades of ministry.

More later on my proposal that we just get rid of the word “gay” all together and swap in “omnivorous.”

Every gay person I’ve known — male and female — has slept with a member of the opposite sex when an attractive opportunity presented itself.

And as I’ve said before, about half ended up “switching back” to heterosexuality and getting married & having kids — no “reparative therapy” required or even considered.

Being gay was a just a fad, a phase.

They outgrew it.

PS: Dave Foley is stupid.
