I think these billboards should go up all over the country.

"We don't believe in hatred or gay bashing, but we don't believe homosexuality is right, and we will stand up for that."

SEE??! There is your problem right there! You simply cannot be an unbeliever in homosexuality and at the same time claim to be "unhateful" or "non-gay bashing", for the buggerers will accuse you of both.

The f@gs of ancient Sodom tried to rape ARCHANGELS. If they didn't spare them..they won't spare you.

The American Psychiatric Association dropped homosexuality from a roster of mental disorders in 1973 under pressure from the nascent gay rights movement, and most mainstream mental health experts today regard efforts to change sexual orientation as ineffective and sometimes harmful to the patient's emotional well-being.
Dr. Robert L. Spitzer -- an acknowledged advocate of the APA's move to declassify same-sex attraction as a mental disorder -- is on record as saying that reparative therapy can be effective and is not intrinsically harmful to the patient's emotional well-being.

Spitzer Study Just Published: Evidence Found for Effectiveness of Reorientation Therapy:

The results of a study conducted by Dr. Robert L. Spitzer have just been published in the Archives of Sexual Behavior, Vol. 32, No. 5, October 2003, pp. 403-417.
Spitzer's findings challenge the widely-held assumption that a homosexual orientation is "who one is" -- an intrinsic part of a person's identity that can never be changed.
The study has attracted particularly attention because its author, a prominent psychiatrist, is viewed as a historic champion of gay activism. Spitzer played a pivotal role in 1973 in removing homosexuality from the psychiatric manual of mental disorders.

. . .
Is reorientation therapy harmful? For the participants in our study, Spitzer notes, there was no evidence of harm.

No kidding - what a GREAT ad. I wish a TV ad could go up with that idea as well.

Anyone who doesn't think that faith in Jesus Christ can't accomplish anything just don't have faith.

"Wonderful husband. Loving father. Former homosexual. Jesus Christ changes lives."

There is no problem in this world too great for God to handle. Homosexuality is an abhorrent lifestyle CHOICE - a choice that can be overcome with faith.

Me too, and I gotta admit, this is pretty ballsy for New Paltz. Haven't been there in over 30 years, so I can only imagine...

"All people have a right to profess their beliefs, just as we do," Fallarino said. "But I don't think it's going to change anybody's mind. I think they're wasting their money."

The gay activists will have to throw this advocate out with yesterday's garbage...he's not doing enough Christian-bashing...he almost sounds even-tempered.
