7.30 tonight had a sad story on disturbed people being messaed around by other dupes.

Unfortunately it appears there’s a “treatment” centre here in Canberra.

Ahhh…I would’ve turned gay for JB, but then he grew the beard. 🙂

And as for Christians with Un-Christlike attitudes, I have only two words for you. Tony Abbott.

May all our collective Deities line up and preserve us after 7 September. With a few notable exceptions the Labor Parliamentary dross deserve only to be ploughed into the ground as fertiliser. But upon close inspection the Liberal dross seem even worse…

I know, right? Isn’t it depressing? It’s like being asked to choose between chopping off your left arm or your right leg.

With a blunt, rusty fork.

If only the same intolerant energy was directed at pedophiles in the church.

I can’t say I’m looking forward to dying for you bastards’ sins with any enthusiasm at all.

You’d make a terrible JC whereas Barcho with a beard and long hair would have it nailed..

I reckon that there is absolutely zero likelihood that my sexual orientation could be changed.

I’m not sure about that, have you met Johnboy?

poetix said :

Their view of Christ must be interesting.

Very few Christians are christ like in their attitudes and behaviours.

This switching between JB and JC in the one comment is profoundly freaky.

I dunno…JC…Beard…JB…Beard…the similarities are too great for this to just be a coincidence. 🙂

So sad. The man the story focussed on has survived (and more) but you wonder how many people are still driven to suicide by this rubbish.

Their view of Christ must be interesting.

Can they cure you of heterosexuality ? Women have been my downfall – as well as costing me a fortune.

Well, that’s the nub of it really. If these nutjobbies are proposing the idea that homosexuality can be “cured”, then surely it would be just as true that heterosexuality or any other preference could also be cured in a similar manner if someone were to try it.

But I’m straight, and I reckon that there is absolutely zero likelihood that my sexual orientation could be changed. It’s as much a part of me as the colour of my eyes. I’m pretty sure that most gay people feel the same way. They didn’t choose to be the way they are, and it’s not an affliction or illness. It just is what it is.

Isn’t it about time these scammers were outlawed?

They probably are…in Nigeria.

I had a friend who contracted “Ghey” from sharing a bottle of mineral water with a someone who was a practicing homosexualist. His hair started to become neater, had some good advice on what not to wear and his dress sense was a bit nicer.

Thats when we noticed that he also knew the underlying meaning to the “Bicycle” song by Queen when we were singing it on the way home for what was to be the last time. We put 2 and 2 together and went to see a specialist in Fyshwick who would know if he was starting to turn. She confirmed our suspicions with a frustrated and judging look as she told us to piss ooorrff.

We did and on the way home he started with doing a Rogers and Hammersteins showtune version of Jimmy Barnes’s “Driving Wheels” with “Wheels on the Bus” harmoniously blended in to the mix. I wanted to let him out to have a run around and then drive off……it would have been the humane thing to do but i could not bring myself to do it.

We went home and I had some mince for tea and my mate stuffed his face with sausages and spuds and had gravy dribbling down his chin with a very satisfied look on his face not knowing what fate had almost befelt him.

But it can be cured?

Tell me more about how someone the beat the dick.

Isn’t it about time these scammers were outlawed?

Man, I can’t believe people go to so much effort for a cause that’s so… stupid

Who cares what other people do if nobody is getting hurt

Are you asking why these people go/are sent to the treatment centre? Or why people are so upset about the treatment centre?

Because if it’s the former I completely agree, but if it’s latter I can pretty confidently say that people who go there for treatment are being harmed psychologically.

Neither – I mean why the hell did these people set up such center in the first place.

There’s a variety of reasons behind it. One of the core reasons is that these people in some cases honestly believe that they’re doing a good thing despite the damage they cause to the people they do this to.

Certainly not unheard of for those running these types of programs to be gay themselves but ashamed and live the lie to the fullest.
‘I used to have homosexual tendancies but now, I’ve got a wife and 5 kids that we pray to god for each day’ but he neglects to mention his self loathing and still goes to that notorious area late at night for some ‘company’. If they get other people to believe it too then there’s a feeling that they’ll end up believing it too.

Oops, in case my flippant comment is misinterpreted, it is aimed at the fools who think homosexuality is a perversion. It is not intended to equate homosexuality with penile fork insertion.

Is there a cure for religious nutbagism?

We could try a religious cure, burning at the stake sounds like a good start.

Hallelujah and let’s exorcise those demons that have invaded these poor unfortunate souls and have turned them into perverted sick homo’s lord, let us pray for them..
