Conversion Therapy advocates, so-called Christians, believe their sexuality is natural, God given, but they think gays choose their sexuality. How do people choose who they are sexually attracted to? How!? How stupid is that?!
It is ironic that a typical conversion therapy "camp" (actually a prison) brings homosexual boys and girls together to share their feelings. These young people, maybe 13-19 or so, have little outside contact with gays until they are sent to these religious prisons for brain washing. Then at camp they see and get to know who they share feelings with. There is absolutely evidence these conversion therapy prisons do anything but harm to the homosexuals, not to mention many are not really homosexuals to start with. Some teens are simply curious about the other sex. Curiosity does not make kids gay.
Conversion therapy creates self-loathing leading, often, sadly, to a life-long misery, and sometimes suicide. Given a more accepting, caring and Christian approach she/he will be much healthier. Guilt is not good for kids.
