There are many people who embrace the idea that it's possible to become an ex-gay with an almost evangelistic fervor. I happen to think that's just a tad shy of lunacy.

I have no doubt that a person can change their behavior, whether it's from a genuine desire to change, or a matter of opportunistic convenience (Ann Heche), but one cannot change their sexual orientation.

I recently saw on Court TV a man who had undergone a sort of sexual preference lie detector test (I won't give details, just use your imagination). I'd like to see anyone who claims to be a newly heterosexual ex-gay take one of these tests. The results should be interesting.

...one cannot change their orientation.

Of course, based on research, thhis is false. Orientation is similar to other ual disorders where it takes a lot of work to correct. Maybe look at the research then decide rather than basising your opinion on ignorance and/or emotion.
