It further proves that there is hope for lost souls through Jesus Christ. Being gay is not natural and is not part of God's plan.

i try not ton dabble in what i don't understand. I am straight and all my gay friends tell me they have always felt that way. I accept it because that is what works for them. I can't imagine anyone making themselves gay with all the gay slurs and discrimination out there. I can't imagine someone doing that to themselves. I have always been attracted to the opposite sex and i am not tempted or even inclined to have any type of sexual contact with females. So i am very not inclined to be gay, that is why i chose my heterosexual lifestyle. I know that if i ever feel attracted to women and loose my attraction for men, i will gladly become a lesbian. My point is i did not choose my sexual orientation and i do not believe gays and lesbians chose theirs. Just because this lady has been "saved" and cured of her lesbianism doesn't mean she can expect all gays/lesbians to have similar experiences. Maybe she never felt strongly about her sexual orientation, maybe she is currently in denial, maybe she really is a different person but that is just her. That cannot and should not be extrapolated to mean that gays/lesbians are sinners waiting to be saved.
My rule of thumb is just because you feel a certain way doesn't mean everybody else does and just because you have something in common with a group of people doesn't mean you can apply the workings of your mind, or your motives and intentions to them. Live and let live

Its propoganda. If you are doing something OTHER than attempting to spread propoganda, and are actually interested in any take other than the one supporting the extremists, I suggest Wayne Besen; "Anything But Straight; Unmasking the Scandals and Lies Behind the Ex-Gay Myth;" Harrington Park Press.

She’s bisexual, just like George Michael and the rest who claim to have changed sexuality (look it up in the dictionary).

No, I hadn't seen it until now.
I really think it's crap.
She says she "traded her mind for a new one".
I take that to mean that she was brainwashed. Why must she misguide people like this to think there's a "way out if you want out"?

No, I haven't.
I would not reach such propaganda, since science agrees that nothing can change someone's natural, inborn sexual orientation. All that "cures" do is waste someone's money and induce mental trauma.
If someone decides to no longer act on their sexual orientation, that's fine. It doesn't change their orientation one iota.
EDIT - wow, I guess being scientific, vs. bible-thumping, is "idiotic." Who knew?

If that is how she feels, good for her. It wouldn't work for me, and it is no ones business. My orientation is between me and God. I intend to live my life, not deny myself one in preparation for an eternity of thanking Him for making me miserable.
All in all I'm very happy being a gay man.

A leopard does not change his spots. He can don a new coat but the spots are still there!

I think she's old and going through menopause. With her estrogen levels dropping so has her desire for sexual relations. She's dried up.

No, I rarely read such propaganda.
I have, however, read actual evidence that disproves such propaganda.....
