Now they just want to cure 'unwanted' homosexuality

This link is to a Focus on the Family press release, and you might wonder why we'd bother, but something very interesting is going on. A few years ago, when Janet Folger and the gang came out with the "Truth in Love" campaign, their message was very different. They said every queer needed a cure, and that it was incumbent on Christians who loved them to pressure them to become straight before they fell victim to drug abuse and AIDS. Focus on the Family, on the other hand, is pushing the cure only for those with "unwanted homosexuality." A subtle but enormous difference. Anyway, if you're experiencing unwanted homosexuality, you may attend "Love Won Out" in Oklahoma City next month. No, you may not send that woman downstairs who keeps hitting on your girlfriend.
