Via AmericaBlog, I ventured to the website of an ex-gay religious activist’s website.  [Graphic at right courtesy of the aforementioned AmericaBlog].

Let me be clear about this — the website I ventured to was by someone who claims that he was able to "pray away the gay" within him, and now he leads a healthy heterosexual Christian life.  (He is, in fact, the Stephen Bennett of Stephen Bennett Ministries, a ministry which "heals" homosexuality through compassion and praying and blah blah blah).

So at the top of the website is a video of Muppets with Crystal Gayle (*ahem*), and then — a little lower — is an entry containing language like this:

I’ve said NUMEROUS times here on my blog I LOVE with a capital “L” the weekends!

Tonight, it’s our weekly Tiger Scouts meeting. We’re doing an outdoor activity tonight (it’s winter here kiddos and it’s FREEZING AT NIGHT!) The Bennett’s have “snack duty” this month, so I’m getting Dunkin’ Donuts Hot Chocolate and their new White Hot Chocolate (YUM YUM!) for the kids. The theme this month for winter is “Poles Apart.” So, how more appropriate than hot chocolate AND white powdered, jelly filled Dunkin’ Munchkins (like snowballs) for a snack? The manager of DD was EXTREMELY generous and is throwing in two dozen frosted, sprinkled donuts as well! God bless her. We’ll all be flying on a sugar high all night — but hey, it’s FRIDAY!!

Tomorrow, I honor once again my Christmas present to my wife – going to the gym with her. I gave HER a one year membership for ME for a Christmas gift! I HATE HATE HATE the gym — but I LOVE LOVE LOVE my wife and kids. THAT’S the reason I go.

Dude, if praying made you "not gay", you need to pray more.
