Can Homosexuals Change?


But, some might ask, can homosexual behavior be changed? Homosexuals often argue that the behavior is innate and cannot be changed, but the experience of more than fifty years of research in homosexual therapy provides conclusive proof that while homosexuality is indeed a deeply imbedded impulse in many people, vast numbers of homosexuals intentionally leave the lifestyle each year and return to normal heterosexual relationships of their own accord. Many others who seek qualified therapy have been cured of addictive and self-destructive homosexual behaviors.


A meta-study combining the results of research conducted by nine psychotherapists and psychoanalysts indicates complete recovery in more than 52 percent of the cases treated. In cases where Christian counseling and conversion to Christ is involved, results are even higher.


The most serious long-range concerns regarding the agenda to enforce public acceptance of homosexual behaviors is the devastation this lifestyle wreaks on both young people and society itself. The constant barrage of pro-homosexual indoctrination makes it difficult for young men and women to escape the homosexual environment, even though they may earnestly desire to return to a normal heterosexual life and family. Vulnerable high school age and younger children, already damaged by family disintegration, the erotic images in television and the movies, vulgar rock music, and other conditions that promote identity confusion, are pushed into destructive, demeaning, life-threatening, and desperately unhappy behavior choices.


Medical researchers and epidemiologists have found that homosexual practices—which include anal and oral sex, as well as contact with, and even ingesting, human waste—are invariably linked to serious and deadly diseases. Despite more than 15 years of well-funded education programs to teach young men to avoid high risk behaviors, the practices continue and are common.
