Al Qaeda says the United States has another crime to add to its litany of atrocities: support for same-sex marriage.
In the latest issue of Inspire, the Al Qaeda-produced English-language magazine that teaches readers how to cause traffic accidents, torch parked cars, and "make a bomb in the kitchen of your mom," the terrorist group goes after President Barack Obama for "evolving" on marriage equality.
Compared to all this, anti-gay activists will LONG for the days they hated being associated with Fred Phelps' Westboro Baptist “God Hates Fags” Church.
Leviticus 20:13 “If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination.”
Leviticus 11:9-12 “These you may eat of all that are in the water… [but,] Whatever in the water does not have fins or scales—that shall be an abomination to you.”
These feelings [same-sex attractions (SSA)] are the result of many factors,
mostly environmental and familial, mixed-in with one genetic
factor, a sensitive temperament. [emphasis added]
Anti-gay/ex-gay activists often claim “there’s no gay gene” to support their
“not born gay” meme. For Christopher Doyle, sensitivity and empathy are not
only the cause of homosexuality, but a genetically-based one at that.
In twenty-three years, we have found that 99 percent of our clients who
experience homosexual feelings have very sensitive temperaments. … This is what
I believe to be the foundation for the development of SSA…
Using that logic, teaching them how to be heartless monsters would cause them
to experience heterosexual feelings.
And that’s the end of that theory, let the bashing begin…
He continues with the clichéd assertion that we equality-agenda driven,
pro-gay activists are all mindlessly following Kirk and Madsen’s “homosexual
manifesto,” After the Ball: How America Will Conquer Its Fear and Hatred of
Gaysin the 90s. (You know, the one we all carry around in our back
pockets.)
This landmark book blueprinted how to indoctrinate the public into the
innate-immutability myth of homosexuality – that people are born this way and
cannot change. … Their biggest problem, however, in achieving all their goals,
is the advent of the former homosexual, or ex-gay. Because if homosexuals can
change, the whole foundation of ‘born this way’ tumbles like a stack of
cards.
We and our “powerful” influence wielding organizations …ignore, defame, or
disqualify [gay to straight] research for some reason.” Because
it is “…biased, or fatally flawed for whatever reason.”
[emphasis added]
The second tactic is to paint SSA persons who seek sexual orientation change
as victims by their counselors.
So, life-maimed survivors of “ex-gay” therapy, like some at Beyond Ex-Gay and a myriad of those
elsewhere are no more than pawns in our political ploy to undermine the ex-gay
movement?
They are now recruiting clients who are unable to achieve sexual orientation
change to sue their former therapists in the name of consumer
fraud…
Unable to change, you say?
The third and final method is to attack former homosexuals who have come
public with their stories of change.
That “attack” is well deserved when so-called “ex-gay” persons like, Mr.
Doyle, use the word “change,” ambiguously, to imply that euphemisms like
“ex-gay,” “formerly homosexual” and “post-gay” mean the equivalent of
heterosexual.
His marriage, children and not having “relapsed in eight and a half years” in
no way prove or even indicate that same-sex orientation can be “changed” —
across the board — to an opposite-sex orientation.
Further, There are PLENTY of gays and lesbians who are married with children
who have never had sex or a relationship with a member of the same gender.

Center (SPLC) is waging a “hate campaign” on the ex-gay counter-movement here, and Wayne Besen’s (of
Truth Wins Out) scathing rebuttal to it here.
