PZ has a post up that lightly details yet another anti-gay project. They claim a 53% success rate, but..... Gay conversion works! If you ignore the data and the methods, that is Posted on: August 29, 2009 8:58 AM, by PZ Myers
The fundamentalist community has a strong interest for some bizarre reason in converting homosexuals into heterosexuals. They consider homosexuality nothing but a bad personal choice, and therefore all gay people need is a little Jesus and they'll switch back to finding the other sex more attractive.
It never seems to occur to them that that implies that their own sexual orientation would then be an arbitrary matter of a trained esthetic, and that that would imply that they should be easily flipped into homosexuality themselves (probably with a little Satan). It's strange: I'd be rather upset if a group of Baptists tried to brainwash me into thinking Al Mohler, president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, was a hot dude I ought to fantasize about.

Amazin', amazin'. I've got to give them points for determination, however misguided. And it's good for a laugh -- for everyone except their victims.

Seems to me that they've proved gay "conversion" doesn't work. Aside from all those that gave them The Finger and went their own private way, all they have is a handful of people who either claim to be somewhat less gay, or claim they are now essentially straight.
(I suspect that some of the latter "success" cases are being honest, but are probably bisexuals who simply drift from one expressed orientation to another.)
