At last! A cure for homosexuality! Woo-hoo!

Wow! The power of prayer can cure homosexuality! Go to it, readers (those of you who are gay, that is), and get cured. After all, this disease you’ve had all these years is far worse than herpes, pox and clap all rolled into one.

We have it on good authority that being gay can be cured. We’re told so by one Philippa Stroud, likely to win the Sutton and Cheam seat in the general election on Thursday. She is head of the Centre for Social Justice – a Tory think tank set up by the party’s former leader Iain Duncan Smith – and believes that gays are possessed by satanic forces. Only prayer can liberate them.

So what are you waiting for?

Our father, who art in heaven, heal us, we beseech thee. Cure us of this vile affection that causes us to lie with man as with woman (and the evil lesbians among us to lie with woman as with man). We praise, oh Lord, thine everlasting mercy. Ah, men! (Sorry, ladies – couldn’t think of a pun for gay women along those lines, so I’m sure you’ll excuse me and not feel excluded. I can’t resist a pun.)

Now this silly woman is part of an organisation that has had and continues to have a lot of influence on Tory policy. It won’t surprise you to know that she’s married to a man who is a minister for the New Frontiers Church, which is allied to the US evangelical movement.

Need I say more?

It remains to be seen whether newly gay-friendly leader of the Toff Party will sack the evil cow. Doubt it.

Hat tip to Barry over at the Freethinker, where I first saw this story.

But (dons nun's habit and bursts into song) how do you solve a problem like Philippa?
(Apologies to Julie Andrews fans everywhere!)

let me show you the end results of this particular *ONE-DIMENSIONAL SCIENTIFIC MODE*
of thinking that is called *CRITICAL THINKING*, which is completely divorced from
any human objectives...

this style has been perfected by dawkins, pz, randi and the other *NEW ATHEISTS*

they thought BOOBIES had no effect... WRONG!

DM, don't panic, and don't carry on suffering.
Hebephrenic Schizophrenia IS treatable, and these days ECT is rarely used. Please go and see a competent doctor before things get totally out of hand.
