They are also looking for ex-gays and ex-ex-gays to contribute their experiences…
I didn’t go through a pray-away-the-gay ministry but I know a lot of y’all did. If any of you are Angelinos, this might be a good thing to participate in.
I’m not clear what you meant by your joke about “porn,” but I can say that it wasn’t appropriate. Out of the Closet Television gives a voice to all who are dealing with gay and lesbian issues. If exgay ministries want to outreach gays and lesbians on Out of the Closet Television, that is certainly an invitation for them to do so. If they want to out reach more than 200,000 gays and lesbian each month with a video message…I want them to send me their video. I’ll host it for free and make it available for all the GLBT community. To date, I’ve not received one video. i’ve called exgay ministries and invited them to send me their video. All have refused, but offered to sell me their video footage. Hmmm…I don’t know what to say about that. If it truly is a ministry, the ex-gay ministry would be sending me videos right and left. Maybe the ex-gay ministry is motivated by something else. We will eventually see. I figure if in 1 year no one has sent anything, the odds are that no one will send anything in five years. Time will tell who is really attempting to reach out to gays and lesbians in love. God’s love agape love.

What’s an “ex-gay video”? A video of, for example, a supposed “ex-gay” male having sex with a female?
That would be porn.
Maybe that’s the point. They want to collect some amateur porn?
I’ll let you know that I’m kidding, but not by much.
