At Least 3 of The 45 ‘Truth Academy’ Attendees Were Undercover Reporters
Americans for Truth About Homosexuality’s Truth Academy conference, where Peter LaBarbera invited ex-gays to come together outside Chicago and learn how to indoctrinate homosexuals into heterosexuality, was sparsely attended with “around 45 people attended the conference on any given day,” relays one blogger. “That’s including the speakers and the families of the speakers, so actual attendee numbers on any given day were lower, and some new attendees were there on Friday and Saturday. Of the people attending, a large majority were older. On the first day there were only around five people attending who looked to be under the age of 30.” Three of these people, including two writing for Friendly Atheist, paid entrance fees just to report back. And boy did they. [photo from May event, via]
This term is funny; “indoctrinate homosexuals into heterosexuality.” It sounds very much like brainwashing someone into a cult, doesn’t it?
And that’s essentially what it is, because nothing short of brainwashing someone is going to convince them that who they are fundamentally and naturally is so wrong that they’re going to accept something so alien and unnatural.
This is just about as crazy a concept as white supremacists trying to convince black people that they’re white. Good luck with that.

Both 100% Co-Sign ………
I have stated that I may hate every fiber of the being of some of the haters against our community. But would never condone physical violence against them. However in the case of Peter LaBarbara after reading the vile, disgusting, reprehensive, 100% false bile he spewed at that little hatefest, I may give pause to reconsider that decision……..

It’s somewhat reminiscent of Stormfront: at least half of the members on there must belong to the ADL, the SPLC, etc.
