The comment I found most interesting was "(w)hat makes me so angry is that a lot of clergy and straight folks aren't speaking out about this (that is, against the Love Won Out conference)."
FYI, the church holding the event did get egged earlier this month.

Gay activists don't like it when anyone suggests that homosexuality isn't necessarily a permanent, genetic-based orientation worthy of minority status and consequent political clout. There are actually plenty of ex-gays out there (I personally know two formerly "decidedly" gay men who have been happily married to women for years), but they rarely get any press coverage or support.
I noticed that quote too, she sounds like a person who just complains about everything. Did she overlook all the protesters who were outside? She got 1000 people on the inside, 300 people on the outside, on opposite sides, but all unquestionably "speaking out".
I can imagine that with hard work and discipline, homosexuals can change their behavior. But I'm dubious that their basic orientation can change. As a heterosexual male, I can't ever imagine ceasing to find women attractive. Why would it be possible for homosexuals to cease finding the same sex attractive?
Another quick thought...
Typically missing from the MSM are the facts about the gay lifestyle is terribly unhealthy, and that there are people that DO want to get out.

Considering how tolerant the left is, they should consider it lucky they were only egged. Leftist lately seem to like to burn things down.
BUMP!
I've never met a so called "gay" person who was not angry. Angry spiritually, physically, politically, sexually, etc and sometimes in all ways.
I've met quite a few and have found disturbed mental states in all. NO wonder that the spiritual world can help these people.
Why must they persist in calling homosexuals "gay"? When it's a misnomer to say the least. Ex homosexuals should be the first to point this out.
When somebody claims to be ex-gay the world is suddenly skeptical. The world doesn't believe their claim, the world doesn't believe their testimony and their declaration that they are ex-gay.
When somebody uses the same standard to believe the declaration of gays but ignores the declaration of ex-gays, they should ask themselves why they believe one group and not the other.
