... marries a man. Given the number of threads here focusing on the individuals who have claimed that they have been cured on being homosexual, thought it was beyond time that a thread of the opposite is posted. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...oup-marries-his-same-sex-partner-9871953.html John Smid : "the former leader of an American group that claimed it could stop people being attracted to those of the same sex has married his male partner." Seems he was lying to himself AND all of those he attempted to "treat".
Many forms of hypocrisy reside within us all. We're all hypocrites about something. And this is why I don't listen to asshats like him, gay or straight. Only lazy people just accept and trust their word. Do your best to check out their claims, or if you don't, just don't listen.
Yeah..... it is true that hypocrisy is there in each and every one of us! I have to admit that I am somewhat offended by the idea that the real problem is lust.......... even though the author does do an exceptionally good job of being diplomatic! http://www.near-death.com/andreason.html#a11a I hate to admit it....... but the way that I think about women........ is the cause of us guys figuring out one way or another of turning them into slaves somehow?!
people claiming to be "cured" are really bi-sexual..... they could go either way in fact bi-sexuals are the only ones that think it's a choice, they have a choice, so they can't understand why us hetero and homosexuals don't have the same .
One of the most famous "pray the gay away" types out there is Marcus Bachmann...husband of Congressperson Michele Bachmann. Keep an eye on Marcus in the years to come, as Michele leaves Congress and no longer is in the spotlight of Rightwing Media like she used to be. I'm expecting a "startling revelation" some day.
lazy, or desperate. Some times people just don't want to be who they are. They don't want to accept things about themselves. I used to be one of these people. When I was younger, I did not want to be gay. I would have sacrificed anything to have been straight. I wanted to be like all my friends, I wanted to live up to my parents wishes. I was fragile at this point, I would have absolutely given over to these "gay cure" clubs had I known they existed. My only problem with these things is that they pray on people in that fragile place. I don't know if you understand that, but I thought having to accept things that you don't like about yourself yet cannot change was part of the human condition for all of us.
I never wanted to be gasy, but I have been through a phase when I did want to fit in abd like eveybody else. But unlike you, because of several different reasons, I found out that all people are going to see me is as nothing but a mongoloid and would never accept me no matter how hard I tied. And it was always that I had to please them, and nothing I did was ever good enough. So eventually i came to realize that you have to make your own way in life to be somebody. Nobody else is going to accept you no matter what you do, so just do your own thing, and let the chips fall where they may. And as for me, I do try to change things I don't like about myself, but these things I never tell to people because they will take every opportunity they can to slam you for it in order to make themselves feel better. So we have shared some similar experiences, but there are some things that do set us apart. But don't count this as a bonding experience. I really don't like you. At all. Neither of us are a complete original.
Well, I am sorry you don't like me. Even though you were offensive as hell toward me, I believe in bygones being bygones
Actually, you attacked me first because I expressed an opinion you didn't like and took personally. However, I too am willing to let bygones be bygones as well, and let the matter drop completely. So therefore, i off my sincere apologies to you for my personal attacks against you.
Apology accepted Captain Needa. +stretches out the hand+ Hey, how come this only works in the movies man? I think that's false advertising! Ah well. Back to the ole drawing board.
So... a gay guy didn't want to be gay and tried to help others.... only to find out he still liked men. Mod edit,,flounder 2 Zzz...
and you chose to comment. Oh and you spelled hurt wrong. Do you really need to have it explained to you why this is an important thread????
What IS the point of somebody coming on a thread and saying "Irrelevant and unimportant topic".... unless they actually DO think it's relevant and/or important enough to them, for them to comment on it???
