What a complete waste of time that was.

Spin, spin, spin, spin,...

Then the writer states, now lets look at the evidence. Three paragraphs later, lots more trashing of the therapy done, he spins into reports that sound more like fantasy than the claims of success were.

I have heard testimonies of people who said they were helped by this. Were they all lying?

I don’t honestly know what to make of the effort, but I do have a pretty good idea this article was not an objective review. It was pure propaganda.

If there is enlightenment on a subject, you don’t have to trash those who disagree with you before revealing the results.

You just reveal the results.

This article sought to create hatred for those who oppose homosexuality. Then it gave a flimsy review of ‘conversion thereapy’ success. Of course there isn’t any success if you believe this nut-job.

I don’t.

Not sure, but honestly, how different would this be from trying to "cure" someone of being a whore, or pornographer, or any other kind of pervert?

Over the years I have see many claims of people coming out of gay lifestyles through religious and psychological counseling coupled with healing prayer. True, backsliding also occurs, but the same thing can be said about virtually every form of therapy aimed at a psychological disorder.

There are countless examples of failures in drug and alcohol rehab, treatment of depression, marriage counseling, pedophilia, anger issues, and other disorders, yet those failures are never offered as evidence that the efforts at therapy were therefore misguided. .
