Waterboarding is involved but its cost $$ if it turns out you like it.

Now, if they’d just ban the conversion therapy the other direction.

All the “stuff” that is taught in our schools today..., “How do you know what you are, if you haven’t tried everything?”

Yeah, we know. Can’t prevent that conversion therapy.

“GOP Gov. Susana Martinez”

How pathetic is that!

Religious freedom counts for nothing with most of the GOP and all of the democrats.

The state of New Mexico has become the seventh state to impose a ban on conversion therapy, the practice of attempting to force LGBTQ people into changing their sexual orientation...

How did "force" get into this? That therapy is sometimes voluntarily chosen by patients.

You can still convert people over 21.

Pederasts and perverts can corrupt minors up to age 18 and it is criminal to counsel a “questioning” youth to consider heteronormality.

Meanwhile, hormone therapy and sex changes for those under 18 are a-okay!

True insanity.

Brick by brick they will tear down the church altogether.

How can parents “convert” their children to theism when the socialist educrat system tells them there is no God?

It too will be banned someday.

It takes a village to indoctrinate your children and turn them against the family.

“is criminal to counsel a “questioning” youth to consider heteronormality.”

So, in other words in this case the State CAN come into the doctors’ office and prevent access to life-saving therapy?* The baby-killers are always trotting out that stupid argument to scare people to vote against pro-life candidates!

*HIV/AIDS is still around and it’s still a death sentence, modern drug therapy is only at best an indefinite stay of execution...

How much does this go on? Are they making a bigger deal of it then it was?

Last week, I heard a woman, who said she was a lesbian, on the radio and she claimed lesbians love to convert straight women.

"Now, if they’d just ban the conversion therapy the other direction."

That was my first thought as well.
