A church which offers to help people with unwanted same-sex attraction is being criticised by gay groups because people, apparently, are born gay.

From here:

Gay rights campaigners have condemned a church for running sessions to ‘cure’ people of homosexuality.

The Frontline Church in Liverpool claims homosexuality is caused by ‘pain in childhood’ and boasts it’s L.I.F.E sessions have ‘succeeded’ with some congregation members.

The national Lesbian and Gay Foundation’s Andrew Gilliver said: ‘The issues about “childhood pain” are nonsense.

‘The pain is often caused by people who don’t understand what they’re going through.

‘We are born gay, but we learn prejudice. This is Dark Ages stuff.’

Someone should tell Chris Birch, a rugby player who woke up after a stroke and decided he was gay, that it’s impossible because, to be gay, you have to be born gay.

When 19-stone rugby player Chris Birch suffered a stroke during a freak training accident, his family feared it would be a life-changing injury.

Yet while his recovery certainly brought about a transformation, it seems to have been in a way no one could have expected.

For when he regained consciousness, the 26-year-old – who was engaged to his girlfriend – claimed he had become gay.
