“Pride Month” has just begun, a month when woke identity politics takes center stage for 30 days, relentlessly driving home the unfounded neo-Marxist claim that homosexual and transgender-identifying individuals are members of oppressed victim classes who, in the name of justice, must be elevated to prominence. Meanwhile, the rest of society — including children in school systems, corporate employees, government employees at every level, and even those in the military and the world of sports — must bend a knee in homage to those who in reality are troubled souls.
Here’s an extremely unpopular truth: There are more people today that are living as “ex-gays” than those leading homosexual lives.
And here’s another: There are also likely more people who experience “sex-change regret,” desperately seeking to find healthcare professionals willing to help them “revert” to their God-given sexual body functions, than there are those seeking so-called “gender-affirming” care.
In order to call attention to this inconvenient truth that challenges both the popularly accepted media narrative AND the political power amassed by those exploiting homosexuality — to squash the immutable truth about the complementarity of the sexes in order to reshape the western world, bleeding dry marriage, man, woman, and the family of all meaning — the Ruth Institute has deemed the first Sunday in June as “Ex-Gay Day of Visibility.”
The world is already overburdened with an ever-growing LGBT liturgical calendar that includes not only “Pride Month” but “Trans Visibility Day,” “Trans Awareness Week,” “Trans Awareness Month,” “Trans Parent Day,” “Genderfluid Visibility Week,” “Lesbian Visibility Day,” “Non-Binary People’s Day,” “Pansexual & Panromantic Awareness Day,” “Pronouns Day,” and many more. All of these are enforced in some way by secular government, media, and the corporate world.
“The gay lobby makes sure everyone knows June is ‘Pride Month,’ but they certainly won’t acknowledge the many people who have left the LGBT identity behind. That’s why the Ruth Institute is declaring the first Sunday of June to be Ex-Gay Visibility Day,” explained Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse, Ph.D., president of the Ruth Institute.
“It’s not politically correct to talk about ex-LGBT people. To the gay lobby, they don’t exist, or they’re just lying to themselves or were never really gay in the first place,” Morse said.
“But I have met many people who have journeyed away from an LGBT identity and are living happy, fulfilled lives with opposite sex partners. There are organizations of them all over the world.”
Millions of people currently self-identify as gay, lesbian or bisexual. Yet Fr. Paul Sullins, a Ruth Institute senior research associate, looked at the studies and estimates there are roughly the same number of ex-gays as there are gays.
“That means there have to be millions of them,” Morse said, “all with stories that deserve to be heard.”
“The world needs to be made aware of this. No one should feel trapped in a life that doesn’t feel right for their life goals and their moral values,” Morse explained. “Being told they were ‘born that way’ and there’s no way out adds another layer of pain and shame.”
In a video kicking off “Ex-Gay Visibility Day,” a panel assembled by the Ruth Institute — two of whom are former homosexuals — discusses why people leave the gay identity, why those who have left will feel pressure not to leave, and how to deal with a child who expresses a same-sex desire.
There are countless other testimonies available online of those who have chosen to leave homosexuality behind, living fulfilling lives married to a member of the opposite sex in harmony with nature and natural law.
And I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that it is true that “ex-gays” outnumber “gays.” I am one of them.

Goes this mean they’re coming out of the closet they’ve already came out of or entering a new closet or should I come up with some double negative to insert here?
Goes = Does. fat fingers
At least 2 of the guys at the Pulse nightclub denounced their homosexual lives after that event. I met with one of them; it was quite moving. He gave his life to Christ and realized the path he was on was utter destruction. The wake up call of the shooting was a shocker for them both and changed the trajectory of their lives in a great way.
Do US all a favor and stay in the closet. Not interested in your personal perverted lives.
As a heterosexual woman who is happily married; I would NEVER be with a man who says he is no longer gay. For men attraction is very much a physical thing. No way someone attracted to men are going to become straight. He’s lying to himself and to you.
That's the problem: they're "out and proud" and most of America is celebrating it.
If you had a homosexual son, would you not welcome his reversion?
I think she’s just recommending that no one marry him regardless of how sincere her son claims to be.

You’d think that part of leaving the LGBT community would be to ditch the pink shirt and ladies’ frames.
I would not believe it to be true. Men are governed by the physical, but some women become “lesbians” for companionship. We have a friend like that.
Kind regards Leaning Conservative!
You might read some of the linked articles, especially the amici curiae brief here:

“Says he is no longer gay...”
That is not what they are doing. They are making a clear distinction between lust and duty. There is no lying involved in the referenced articles.
“He ... realized the path he was on was utter destruction.”
Yes.
“Their end is destruction. Their God is their stomach. Their glory is in their ‘shame.’” -Philippians 3:19
Kind regards back! Question: if you were a woman would you want to be with a man who is saying he is going to be with a woman out of duty? I definitely would not because that is obviously not in his nature. A relationship like that just begs for pain and sadness for both the man & the woman.
Thanks!
Good question.
I am a pastor and have done some marital counseling through the years, not that much lately though.
But from that perspective I can tell you that the women who have done so are very fulfilled and happy, being Godly, even Christlike in their sacrificial service and loyalty to duty. Dr. Bob Jones Sr. the prominent fundamentalist evangelist of the turn of the 20th century and the founder of Bob Jones Univ. in 1927 said it this way, “You don’t find happiness looking for it, you stumble across it on the road of duty.”
Jesus said it this way, “It is the spirit that quickeneth. The flesh profiteth nothing...” Or to apply that to what you were saying, You must go against your nature, which is sinful, selfish, lazy etc. every time you do what is right.
I don’t necessarily disagree about caution for the girls. I would think rather that they should take guard against their own romantic blindness. Marriage ain’t a romance novel. If she finds a man of honor who will keep his vow and do his duty, she should count her blessings!
