Doesn't surprise me.Conversion therapy crusader has something to say: He’s gay
A South Carolina man who founded one of the nation's biggest conversion therapy ministries has something to say: he's gay.
The Post and Courier reports Hope for Wholeness founder McKrae Game came out of the closet this summer, nearly two years after he was fired from the faith-based conversion therapy program. He's now trying to come to terms with the harm he inflicted when he was advocating for religious efforts to change a person's sexuality.
“Conversion therapy is not just a lie, but it’s very harmful,” Game told The Post and Courier.
Conversion therapy leader for 2 decades, McKrae Game disavows movement he helped fuel
“I was a religious zealot that hurt people,” Game said in an interview. “People said they attempted suicide over me and the things I said to them. People, I know, are in therapy because of me. Why would I want that to continue?”
Game recently published a written apology to his personal Facebook page in which he called for the dissolution of any conversion therapy practice or ex-gay ministry. Though he condemned the practices, Game also said a group like Hope for Wholeness could serve as a community for those that believe “homosexuality is incongruent with their faith.”
Most people who hate so vehemently are often projecting their own self hate onto others
That's an interesting theory.
Would you say the same about Gay Activists, that the most rabid are actually closeted Normal people?
Are gay activists trying to turn straight people gay?
