It would seem, queers are winning.

All I ever hear anymore is gay. Gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, gay. Can’t even log on to FR anymore to get away from it. The queers are indeed winning.

I often have the impression that being gay is not so much a bonafide attraction to others of the same gender, but is rooted in fear of the opposite gender and other factors, such as self-esteem issues.

If all those issues could be sorted out, I think that a lot of “gayness” could be resolved.

There are more ex-homosexuals than homosexuals.

If I’ve read this correctly it says that all the subjects are people involved in the ministry. Further only 53% reported a convesion. If that reading is correct, and im willing to be corrected, I have doubts about the general applicability of this finding due to the select nature of the sample

Of the gay men I’ve known only 3 managed to become straight. In their cases they were only gay a few years, the longest was around 13, and all 3 by religious mediation. I would suggest that like most lifestyles the change becomes more difficult was time passes.

Thanks. Glad to hear there’s such wonderful hope.

At my church, each Sunday, at the beginning of the service, the pastors welcome everyone. They state they are available and will support folks who are striving to be conformed into the image of Christ and to live a life in obedience to Scripture and that we cherish and accept everyone as they walk that path.

I enjoyed reading the article and am so glad to hear of many who yearn to be free.
