A heads-up on a series by Jim Burroway over at Box Turtle Bulletin on "Love Won Out." Burroway in a lot of ways is much nicer than I am -- he actually attended the event and talked to people, trying to understand the mindset that has led to the whole ex-gay phenomenon.
See his posts:
Prologue: Why I Went to "Love Won Out"
Part 1: What’s Love Got To Do With It?
Part 2: Parents Struggle With “No Exceptions”
I do try to understand -- I don't want to sell myself short on that -- but I find myself suffering from a lack of "willing suspension of disbelief." I simply don't comprehend, first of all, how anyone can take anything anyone says -- expecially someone who obviously as an agenda -- at face value, and secondly, how anyone can ignore evidence that says that this is wrong.
Too rational. I'm way too rational for this world.
