Jeff Walton’s web article quoted Hillary Clinton speaking at a gay pride event organized by the group “Gays and Lesbians in Foreign Affairs Agencies” in June of 2010. “We celebrate the progress of advancing the rights of LGBT [Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender] in our country, as we continue to advance the rights of all people around the world.” Walton believes that at the State Department LGBT rights trump religious freedom.

In December of 2010 PFOX (Parents and Friends of Ex-gays and Gays) sent out a bulletin with a link to the testimony of a man in his twenties named Jake who was able to change his sexual orientation with the help of reparative therapy. Here is a short excerpt. “Thankfully, I discovered a form of psychotherapy, often called Reparative Therapy or Gender Affirming therapy. It attempts to treat the root causes of your homosexuality, and gradually allow your heterosexual ‘true self’ to appear. The therapy has a success rate typical for most forms of psychotherapy, about a third of the persons who do it properly and don’t give up experience ‘good change.’ Thanks to much determination, I am among those whom it has worked well.” The full testimony can be found at http://pfox.org/diary-ex-gay-man.pdf.

After four years of supporting the Day of Truth event in high schools and one year “spearheading” the event, Exodus International will no longer be involved in the Day of Truth. In a press release Exodus International president Alan Chambers stated, “Even though we have reached a fair number of students, we believe that due to the timing of the event, Day of Truth was always perceived in an adversarial manner, and became more about policy than people. That is in conflict with the mission we have chosen to embrace as an organization. We want to continue to promote dialogue and to equip Christian kids to reach out with compassion, grace and truth. We don’t need to practice this once a year, but rather every day.” The press release was still posted as of July 9, 2012 at http://exodusinternational.org/2010/11/exodus-departs-from-day-of-truth/

This became the biggest pedophile scandal in San Diego history. This video features former homosexual James Hartline speaking at the San Diego City Council.” The video can be viewed at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mOk3sHPNjvI&feature=related.
