Group Blasts NBC for Advancing 'Homosexual Activist Agenda'

(CNSNews.com) - A conservative, pro-family group is expressing outrage over what it calls the misrepresentation of former homosexuals on the NBC's crime drama, Law and Order: Special Victims Unit.

Focus on the Family said this week's Law and Order episode offered "60 minutes of misinformed homosexual activist rhetoric."

The episode focused on a therapist counseling men and women about leaving homosexuality. According to Focus on the Family, "The show's writers took every opportunity to discredit the effectiveness of such counseling and even had the therapist murdering his homosexual son's lover by show's end."

Focus on the Family says current research proves that sexual orientation can be changed, and its staff includes a man, Mike Haley, who says he "personally walked away from homosexuality over a decade ago."

In a press release, Haley said he was "stunned" by the "misrepresentation" depicted on Tuesday's Law and Order episode: "The truth is that, for those struggling with unwanted homosexuality, there is a way out, and thousands of men and women who have voluntarily taken that journey are surely expressing outrage at this attempted invalidation of their lives and experiences."

Focus on the Family said programs like the one aired by NBC on Tuesday are "simply irresponsible and potentially harmful to those who are looking for a way out."

The question of whether homosexuals can change their sexual orientation simply by choosing to do so is very hotly debated by people on both sides of the issue.

While some former homosexuals say they are living proof that it can be done, other practicing homosexuals insist they were born that way and knew from childhood that something about them was different.

But one thing I doubt they are is straight.

That makes them all liars. Yes, the men who used to act out in homosexual ways who are now happy with wives and children. You "doubt" that they are straight yet they had to perform sexually in order to have children. Maybe all of the wives dressed and acted like men in order to get pregnant by their husbands?

It's sad that you won't be open minded on this issue. Maybe you hang around too many liberal venues? I'm simply open minded about it all. I don't call the ex-homosexuals liars becasue of my personal agenda.

How many times do you need things explained to you? From that response, I can only assume you've not read a thing I've written because I just explained this in detail and you still got it wrong.

When you can read what I wrote, I might discuss this with you. If not, I'm not about to waste my time repeating things I've already said just because you either can't understand it or seek to deliberately misconstrue what I've said.

All homosexuality is caused by early childhood sexual abuse.

While that's probably the major cause there are others. Such as having an absent or insufficient relationship with one's father. Or being relentlessly teased by ones peers when in the formative years (self fulfilling prohpecy)

Of course, as you stated, the vast majority of people with Same-sex Attraction disorder (SAD) have been molested.
