We’d like to give you more of an idea about Barack Obama‘s new preacher pal, ex-gay preacher Donnie McClurkin. Here’s an excerpt from a piece he wrote for Charisma Mag:
I was not born with these sexual tendencies. It wasn’t chromosomal and had nothing to do with my DNA. These tendencies surfaced because a broken man thrust an 8-year-old boy into this whirlwind.
…
It’s the same with the Word of God. When the seed is planted into a person’s heart, if used correctly it will stop the natural cycle of sin. The Word will multiply and grow and bring forth fruit, and the fruit will remain. [Ed. note: Ha!]…There are countless numbers of people who are not happy in this lifestyle and want to be freed from it. They were thrust into homosexuality by neglect, abuse and molestation, and want desperately to live normal lives and one day have a happy home and family.
For them, I write this without apology, knowing that I’ve been through this and have experienced God’s power to change my lifestyle. I believed that I was meant to be a whole man, made for one woman, and God brought it all about. I am delivered, and I know God can deliver others too.
Barack Obama truly is the hopeful candidate.

Now if he would just stop tweezing his eyebrows, his transformation to become a straight man would be complete. You go girl!

Yeah, I’m sure some Evangelical is periodically putting the “fear of God” right in his ass. Obama’s courting these folks? Well, I never supported him, although for a brief moment I considered it. I just don’t trust Obama. If he’s on the ticket, I doubt that I’ll vote.

Barak Obama was once asked if he considered himself more black than white. His response was that when he hails a cab in NYC no one sees his white mother.
Barak Hussein Obama had a nonobservant Protestant Christian mother and Muslim father and stepfather.
Mr. Obama claims membership in the United Church of Christ, a liberal denomination….yet speaks like an uberconservative Dominionist when speaking about gay issues. It is all “DOWN LOW” for this man.

I really wanted to believe in Obama. I second guess my decision now because I don’t believe in all of this ex-gay crap. I’m gay and I was never molested nor do I want to be gay to go against the grain of society. I’m gay just as a straight person is just that. I don’t need to be delivered from anything. I feel bad for the ex-gay preacher.

I am sorry but there is no such things as an ex-gay man or woman. The only reason other people don’t have pride in being who and what they are is because of close minded fools who make them feel bad about it. Another thing, I have many friends who are gay and lesbian who haven’t been molested and are completely happy about their sexuality.
