The California senate has voted to ban reparative therapy for gay and lesbian teens. The bill, which interestingly enough has been opposed by both the National Association for Research and Therapy of Homosexuality and the California Psychological Association (though for very different reasons), now goes on to the state assembly.

CT has reported how many Christian therapists have abandoned reparative therapy amid broad changes in the ex-gay movement, as well as how Willow Creek Community Church and other groups have ended partnerships with Exodus International.

Practitioners of reparative therapy in the United Kingdom have recently lost their licenses over the disputed practice.

The government must ensure stability in the present and provide for its future. Everyone, including the homosexually oriented, depends on these things being done and done well. The two objectives are closely related, and children are at the focus of both. Providing for the future means bearing, educating and socializing children; children are our social security, economically, physically and emotionally. If there are not enough of them, there will eventually be a disproportion between those able to work and those who cannot, and the burden of supporting the dependent population can become so severe that it strains society's bonds. If the children are not raised properly, the well-being of those who depend on them later is threatened as much as, if not more than, if there are too few children. Marriage provides for society's future by formally constituting the family. The traditional family—husband, wife, and natural children—is the only way societies have ever found of provi...

To not tell Catholics who identify as LGBT that homosexual acts will lead them to hell is actually showing them hate. This was the bold message delivered Wednesday to the family conference running concurrently to the Vatican’s LGBT-affirming World Meeting of Families (WMOF) in Dublin, Ireland this week. Telling the truth to LGBT Catholics is urgent because we decide where we’re going for all of eternity by our choices and actions during our lives. “That’s the seriousness of what we’re dealing with here,” said Westen. “And that’s the seriousness we need to convey to all those in our lives who are afflicted with sexual confusion.” “It’s hate not to tell LGBT Catholics that gay sex leads to hell,” he told attendees at “A Conference of Catholic Families.” Westen noted for the audience how not more than 10-minutes’ walk from the Conference locale Jesuit Father James Martin would be delivering the message to Catholic families at the Vatican-presented WMOF that homosexuality and transgende...

Homosexual couple ‘married’ by Justice Ginsberg accused of drugging, raping student

Ginsburg  did the same for several homosexual couples  in the years before the court mandated that all fifty states recognize homosexual or fake “marriage,” leading many lawmakers, religious leaders, and pundits to  demand that she recuse herself  from the case for pre-signaling her personal view on the subject. She refused to bow out, however, and  Obergefell v. Hodges  declared a constitutional right to homosexual fake  “marriage” 5-4 in 2015. A 4-4 tie  would have allowed  the lower court ruling in the case to stand ( in this case  a Sixth Circuit ruling that states did not have to recognize same-sex “marriages”), but would not have set a binding precedent for the rest of the country. The 85-year-old Ginsburg, the subject of an  upcoming Hollywood movie , said in July that she has “about at least five more years” before she retires. Rising baritone singer Samuel Schultz has accused a prominent homosexual couple whose “marria...
