I have to agree that cancelling the program was pretty ridiculous. I don't usually make a big deal of being gay (or even mention it to anyone not interested), but I have to say that if your objective is to promote diversity, it's silly to exclude someone just on the basis of their (current or former) sexual orientation. And any gay person who is "uncomfortable" being around an ex-gay needs to grow up and face the fact that not everyone who thinks they're gay is going to be happy with that fact and may, indeed, want to change.

I salute you for being reasonable! It is a shame that every topic in America (including this one) has devolved into a militant-take-no-prisoners argument. If everyone could be more reasonable, it would be a refreshing change. Thanks for giving me hope that it is possible.
