Exodus is a US-based "ex-gay" ministry, claiming that through reperative theraphy people suffering from "same-sex attractions" may be cured. They have previously aligned themselves with such organisations as Concerned Women for America and Focus on the Family. Its current president is Alan Chambers.Quotes
1 EXODUS cites homosexual tendencies as one of many disorders that beset fallen humanity. Choosing to resolve these tendencies through homosexual behavior, taking on a homosexual identity, and involvement in the homosexual lifestyle is considered destructive, as it distorts God's intent for the individual and is thus sinful. (src)
2 [T]he claim that reparative therapy is dangerous and unethical is a coordinated effort to stifle the truth about change and the serious risks inherent in the gay life. (src)
3 We are here to say that change is possible because we have evidence of that, with hundreds of thousands of ex-gays that have come out of homosexuality. (src)
4 Exodus upholds redemption for the homosexual person as the process whereby sin's power is broken, and the individual is freed to know and experience true identity as discovered in Christ and His Church. That process entails the freedom to grow into heterosexuality. (src)
