Christian bigots in London, had wanted to display posters on buses, promoting 'gay conversion', arguing that peeps can be 'cured' of their homosexuality.

Homophobic freaks.

Boris Johnson has had them pulled - not often a Tory does the right thing!

YOU WERE SO RIGHT TO MAKE THAT POINT.....Offbeat..(is there an e*******n??) No too-too-tooo cynical. The adds were an affront to public decency. Miserable attempt to scotch a highly popular and successful advertisement campaign previous. If the adds had gone ahead, we should have made ourselves a laughingstock, rightly so.

Red Leanings, what about a thread about how christians can be cured. Historically it was the rack, the stake and burning faggots, along with hanged, drawn and quartered. Better still buy a church, they're flogging them off dirt cheap, wonder why? Oh yes!!! It's the 21st century and just a few years to go and every church in the land will be empty....here's one...plenty more on the site

Not really groundbreaking news as this is what the Ex-Gay industry is all about. Still, for all their efforts such attempts have never gained traction among the populace.

Recently,in the USA, there was a dispute over PFLAG and a ex-gay group in which both groups wanted to distribute fliers at a large high school.

Such events are usually forgotten rather quickly as the average person, though still indebted in their petite-homophobia, still believes that sexual orientation is fixed and unchangeable (a small grace).
