"I got that. I just haven't gotten around to commenting on it yet." Unfortunately, we appear to be the only people in this thread who got it. Responding to this article using real scriptural arguments is a sure sign someone didn't get the lame joke. This article isn't even GOOD satire--by "cleverly" changing "ex-gay" to "ex-straight," the author doesn't even make a pertinent point. Apparently we're supposed to read this and think, "gosh, when you look at it from this perspective, the ex-gay movement really IS silly." But we don't. It's non sequitur, because: 1) People who support the ex-gay movement don't consider the idea that a straight person could be turned into a homosexual to be silly or outlandish. In fact, that's a basic tenet of the ex-gay movement: homosexuality results from environmental circumstances acting on someone who is straight by nature, and becomes homosexual by nurture. 2) Ex-gays believe homosexuals should seek a cure to their homosexuality because homosexuality is wrong. From this belief, it does not logically follow that ex-gays should support changing from heterosexual to homosexual.
