Ex-gays made huge impression Friday at Maryland "gay marriage" public hearing

The February 25 public hearing on "gay marriage" at the Maryland House committee lasted past 9 pm. and went unbelievably well, especially compared to the Senate hearing, we were told. This time the homosexual side was less represented (maybe because they were over-confident) and the pro-family side came in huge numbers. "It was a great day of a lot of great testimony," one activist told us. "We had very compelling speakers with completely irrefutable arguments."

There were many excellent pro-family speakers from across the spectrum -- all races, religions, and occupations. Even a lot of pro-family attorneys spoke. It was an outpouring from across the state rarely seen before.

But at the center of the pro-family testimony were very powerful presentations by ex-gays. Their presentations seemed to even overwhelm the committee members. Their thorough refutation of the "born that way" lie, which is the basis of the homosexual movement's "gay marriage" propaganda machine, really appeared to ring a bell.

At least these guys have the courage to speak. Thank God for that if nothing else.

Excellent news.

Did anyone catch the yearly budget of Exodus International compared to pro gay lobbyists?

Folks should consider giving to Exodus. They have a 3M budget compared to 100M of pro-gray lobbyists.

Just a thought...they are a small minority(pro-gay). It sickens me to see what is happening in our elementary schools, with the desensitizing of our children teaching the pro gay ideology.

Steppin off my step stool....

Good videos, but wonder why the first guy felt it necessary to drop in a couple insults at the end. I don’t think that helped his cause.

This is really awesome. This is what I was trying to get at in that other thread. When folks approach the problem of homosexuality as a problem, they start getting results. And, homosexuality more corresponds to the aspects of a mental disorder rather than an innate characteristic. This is the basic foolishness of the whole "Orientation" BS explanation that runs through the so called "homosexual agenda."

The American Psychological Association puts the number of people who successfully transition to less than 1%. This testimony puts the lie to that whole line of BS. Yet the APA, has stood as the last word on these issues for years. And, because they find homosexuality normative, they refuse to characterize it as an illness or condition for which people can seek treatment and recover from. This is a horror.

Excellent testimony from GREG QUINLAN. Wish he pointed out Robert Spitzer was the “Dr” in charge of striking down homosexuality as a parphilic disorder in the DSM in 1973 then concluding it is a changeable behavior.

Outstanding. This needs to be passed around.

I have long believed that the key to winning the battle against the homosexual agenda is the ex-gay movement.

Contributing to P-FOX or Exodus is money well spent.

I think the first guy made a number of good points, especially that the number of suicides did not change. I would wish he had continued with statistics in more detail, such as the much higher rate of disease and the earlier deaths of gays, and the higher rates of obesity and emotional illness among lesbians that also remain unchanged by the existence of gay civil unions.

The second guy's testimony, while I agree with it as a Christian, I do not feel was the best tactic to use in a multi-cultural state like Maryland, where many influential people are Jewish. He, too, would have been better sticking to detrimental facts that have been studied, such as that more children of gays turn out to be gay, the twin studies that demonstrate that one identical twin can be gay and the other not (therefore it is not biologically determined), the higher numbers of gays and lesbians than straights who were molested as children, etc.
