ORLANDO – During a radio interview last month, the president of the world’s largest “ex-gay” Christian ministry questioned the effectiveness of therapies that are designed to “cure” gay men and women of their homosexual orientation, and added that he thinks gays can go to heaven.
Exodus International President Alan Chambers told host Janet Mefferd that gay Christians can manage their same-sex attractions, which for some gay people could mean practicing celibacy. An incredulous Mefferd asked, “How can you simultaneously hold that somebody who is an unrepentant homosexual can go to heaven?”
“There’s no place that says God will change your orientation,” Chambers told her.
