Condragulations to Dennis Jernigan, winner of the create your own ex-gay theme song contest. Yep, you read that correctly.
Voice of the Voiceless, those courageous souls battling the so-called oppression of ex-gays, ran a contest this summer and the winning tune made its wholly unimpressive debut at the “First Annual Ex-Gay Awareness Dinner.” In attendance was the “who’s that?” of the ex-gay movement, some 60 Christian leaders comfortably fitting into “a super-secret bunker deep under Washington D.C.,” reports Joe My God.
At least it was a better turnout than the handful of former homos that showed up to that epic fail of a rally held back in July. Dennis Jernigan, an ex-gay singer/songwriter (oxymoron) was also there to perform his delusional inspirational ballad. Sure it sounds like part of an aborted score even Andrew Lloyd Weber found too treacly, but we’ll give it to Dennis — that queen can carry a note.

Just ’cause they’re ex-gay, doesn’t mean they’re ex-show-tune… 😉

Oh god. How sappy. This is another jesus loving song restyled for the ex dipshits.

So… they call themselves “ex-gay”?
Isn’t that strange? I don’t call myself “ex-straight”. I’m just “gay”.
So, somehow, somewhere, deep inside those sad little men, they are still attached to being “gay”.

Someone needs to do a high energy remix of this,and turn it into a gay anthem just to remind this guy, that sleeping with women does not mean you dont like men, Its called being bi sexual,

Not the worst song ever and the performance definitely helped. Sounded like something you’d hear on a Christian radio station driving through North Carolina or something.

I thought the song was nice. I just don’t agree with the bigotry motives behind it.

sorry, I could not make it through the whole song as I was getting ready to barf!!! When this song starts out with dreaming a dreaming and reality…….I was losing my lunch! Oh, by the way, so I am not totally rude, congrats on winning the song contest between you and the other 1/2 person that entered

@MikeE: This is a group created by a very well known hate group (the family research council). Ex-gay keeps the myth that change is possible going and good for fundraising. Just a marketing tool.

Hmmm. Guess this will get added to the playlist rotation at Hobby Lobby.

NOTE: to Upworthy – when referring to people we say, “… handful of homos WHO not THAT.
OY VEY
This is the stupidest organization of people I have ever seen. They meet b/c they are all ‘ex-gay’ and expect any of us to believe that they are not all banging each other secretly at the end of every meeting. I am not convinced.

Dudes a little stiff; needs some serious prostrate stimulation for that tension in his jaw, neck, and shoulders. I say we send a 21-year-old strapping ranch hand down there to help him: put an end to that sham.

I love the cute little painted Dutch wooden shoes on the bookcase behind him!
