Landmark Study Shows Trauma Treatment Significantly Alters Sexual Attraction

Image
Surprising results challenge our assumptions about how fluid sexual attractions are.  A new large-scale, peer-reviewed study in the Journal of Human Sexuality demonstrates that sexual attraction fluidity exploration in therapy significantly decreases unwanted sexual behaviors while improving psychological well-being. Researchers examined 75 adult males who reported same-sex attractions and wished to explore their sexual attraction fluidity. Participants worked with certified therapists using Reintegrative Therapy, a treatment method that seeks to identify and resolve past traumatic memories. “Actively attempting to change one’s sexuality might interfere with this process. Instead, we encourage clients to resolve memories they identify as being traumatic. As we support them through this journey, we let whatever happens naturally happen,” said Dr. Joseph Nicolosi Jr., a licensed clinical psychologist and founder of the Reintegrative Therapy Association, a nonprofit scientific organizatio

Gay men breaking blood donation rules

Image
Men who have sex with men are barred from giving blood in England, Scotland and Wales for three months after sexual activity - but some are deciding to break the rules because they are offended!  "It galls me every time I hear an advert on the radio asking for people to give blood, when there's a huge section of society that is just denied that for no good reason," says David - not his real name. He is a sexually active gay man who donates blood to the NHS several times a year. "I grew up in a family who gave blood regularly and instilled in me that that was the right thing to do.  I did it before I started having sex with men - and I carried on doing it afterwards because, for me, that was the right thing to do." David's idea of right is simply wrong In 2017, rules were relaxed in England, Scotland and Wales to allow men who have sex with men to give blood after abstaining from sexual activity for three months.  Previously, they had to wait a y

Do homosexuals go to hell?

DO HOMOSEXUALS GO TO HELL? AUSTRALIAN PRIME MINISTER & OPPOSITION LEADER RESPONDED The leaders of both of  Australia 's major political parties agreed on Tuesday that gays don't go to hell because of their sexual orientation, as Christian beliefs rose to extraordinary prominence in the final days of an  election  campaign.  Prime Minister Scott Morrison opposed gay marriage while opposition leader Bill Shorten argued for marriage equality ahead of a national vote in 2017 that led to Australia legally recognizing same-sex unions. Morrison, a Pentecostal Christian, accused Shorten, a Catholic before converting to his second wife's Anglican faith, of a "desperate, cheap shot" ahead of elections on Saturday by challenging the prime minister to say whether he believed gays went to hell. Morrison said he did not believe gays went to hell, after failing to directly answer the same question from a journalist a day earlier. "I'm not running f

Australian Government amendments to religious schools bill - LGBT bullies

LGBT ZEALOTS VIA LABOR AND THE GREENS   WANT TO DESTROY RELIGIOUS SCHOOLS, CHURCHES CHURCH AGED HOME For those following the debates about proposed amendments to discrimination laws removing religious freedom from faith-based schools, the LNP Government has now tabled a number of amendments to  the ALP Bill  released earlier this week. While these amendments are a move in the right direction, there are still some serious concerns about their effect on religious schools and their ability to operate in accordance with their religious beliefs. The Government amendments can be seen on  this page  as separate documents. I will aim to briefly outline the effect of the amendments. I will assume readers are familiar with the  ALP Bill  discussed in my previous blog. 1. Deleting new s37(3) An important amendment, numbered  KQ147 , deletes the part of the ALP Bill which adds news 37(3). That provision is one that I highlighted in my previous post as creating a number of unpredictab

Christian response to the gay lifestyle

At the turn of the twentieth century, the sciences supposedly knew better than the Bible. Now, the social sciences supposedly know better than the Bible. And we are seeing this new world-view presented artfully and entertainingly through a barrage of media and in the halls of the academy. A casual watcher and listener will be exposed to countless gay, bisexual, and transgender individuals, acts, and ideas—and all without ever leaving mainstream media outlets. These are the times we live in. These challenges have a cumulative effect. They become self-fulfilling prophecies. The promoters and producers of this material not only want to make room for these biblically aberrant views, but they also want to increase the tribe. They want to silence anyone who would stand up against them. They want to oppose anyone who would say, “What you are promoting and doing is wrong.” The proverbial silver lining in these challenges to the Bible in our day is that they bring a great deal of clarity to

It’s ‘wildly unhealthy’ for everyone when a priest tells his congregation he’s ‘gay’: Catholic priest

For a few years now I have had the privilege to walk with men and women who experience same sex attraction , and who desire to live an integrated life of wholeness and joy, in fidelity to the demands of chastity. They do not like the terms “ gay ” or “lesbian” because they understand that whole, healthy persons do not reduce themselves to their mere parts, or to labels that can put them in boxes for years to come. These same men and women also understand the pitfalls of sharing their own sexual struggles and attractions with wide audiences. Occasionally some of them may prayerfully discern the need for a carefully delivered witness talk about their story in support of the Church’s teachings, but such situations should be the exception rather than the norm. In our modern culture where the prevailing approach to sexuality is to speak without restraint, the people that I walk with attempt to take a very different approach that treats such topics with the delicacy, modesty, and s

Homosexuals are NOT the new black

No matter how many times the leftist ACLU wants to compare LGBT activism to the blood-bought civil rights of black Americans , there is no comparison. Gay is  not  the new black. Jack Phillips, a Christian cake artist who owns  Masterpiece Cakeshop  in Lakewood, Colorado has run his business for years according to his religious convictions. He is a gentle, kind and loving soul. He serves  everyone , just not every event. In 2012, Jack politely declined to create a custom cake for a same-sex wedding for Charlie Craig and David Mullins. They claimed “humiliation” and “discrimination”; the ACLU was on it like icing on…uhhhh…cake. Thankfully,  Alliance Defending Freedom  (ADF) came to Jack’s defense. Having no real substantive argument against someone’s freedom of expression and religious freedom, LGBT organizations decry the exercise of First Amendment rights as an act of modern-day Jim Crow. Cue the hijacking of the civil rights movement. Of course the  ACLU , the  New Yo
