My brother posted an article about some Focus on the Family (American, James Dobson, queer hating "christian") sub-group spouting the possibility of changing "orientation". Basically its possible if the subject is willing enough. Just give it the old college try, smash the "feelings" of homosexuality way deep down, and come back to the heterosexual life.
Funny, but the article and most of Dobson's work focuses on male homosexuals. Not much about the lesbians, or the bisexuals, or the "feared" transfolks. I had to read through the stupid thing, like watching a TV car crash in slow motion. You know a lot of special effects are involved, and most to all is not real, but you have to watch anyways. I read so I can remember what my siblings (not all, just some) believe down deep. That this phase of my life will pass, that I could change if I tried, that I am still following that "false Jesus" who loves me as I am.
So, my brother, why bother posting this information? Do you have a lot of queer readers dying for a morsel of truth so they can change their wicked ways? I don't think so, as I am the only one of his family or friends who is openly gay and doesn't give a damn who knows.
The only thing in my life that needs a change right now is the dang light bulb over the stove. It keeps burning out. I keep replacing it. Maybe if its willing and tries hard enough, if it believes in itself enough, it will stay lit all the time and never burn out. Let's all pray it does!

wow...nice to have supportive family eh!
I have no idea how the ficus on the Family people got my email but I have called, emailed and written to them to take my name off their list...I guess someone thought I needed saving.
Why don't people leave the judging up to the big guy and practice loving instead.
I thought we were created in His image anyway...perhaps the big guys scored a little differently on the Kinsey scale than some might think!
My stove light keeps burning out too!
