In the aftermath of the latest battle over gay marriage in Maryland Greg Quinlan has pointed out the hypocrisy of the gay political lobbying organization – the Human Rights Campaign (HRC). “HRC’s bullying against ex-gays contradicts its claim of equality,” said Quinlan. “Why should heterosexuals be fooled by HRC’s false commitment to so-called equality?” Quinlan pointed out that while the HRC advocated for gay marriage on grounds of equality, it called on the World Bank to remove Parents and Friends of Ex-gays and Gays (PFOX) from its list of charities. The full text of the PFOX bulletin can be found at http://pfox.org/WHEN-EX-GAYS-SPEAK-LEGISLATORS-LISTEN.html.

Excerpt from Christopher Doyle’s editorial: “When Greg Quinlan, president of the board of Parents and Friends of Ex-Gays & Gays, identified himself in the Feb. 26 Metro article “Md. House plans to act fast on gay marriage,” you put quotation marks around “ex-gay.” But there were no quotation marks in references to gay members of the House of Delegates. Putting “ex-gay” in quotes suggested that such a sexual orientation is not valid, not recognized or both. But thousands of former homosexuals collectively identify themselves as such.” The full editorial can be found at http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2011/03/04/AR2011030405804.html.

Greg Quinlan, president of Parents and Friends of Ex-gays and Gays (PFOX), spoke before the Maryland State Legislature in February of 2011 urging the legislators to stop the effort to legalize same-sex marriage in the state. His argument was both compelling and informative, backed by facts. Following are excerpts from his testimony.

“I am an ex-gay. That means a former homosexual for those of you who don’t understand the term ‘ex-gay.’ … “There is no replicated, scientific study supporting any specific biological etiology for homosexuality.” That’s a quote from the American Psychiatric Association May 2000. (more…)

This is an excerpt from ex-gay Greg Quinlan “Governor Chris Christie has signed the ‘Anti-Bullying Bill Rights.’ This legislation is very bad.
