An interview with Jacob Wilson, who was subjected to "treatment" in the Christianist ex-gay program, "Love in Action".
A fascinating and revealing insight into internalised homophobia and self-deceit and how you just don't "get zapped by the straight gun". These people in effect teach you to kill part of yourself, and you then project that self-hatred against others.
As he says: "part of myself died inside" and "it gave me a critical and hateful heart." The Christian-Fascists just can't see how the whole program is un-loving and hateful. Jacob Wilson managed to escape the clutches of these loonies. And survived one suicide attempt. But others don't.
