The Exorcist

Hopefully one day a historian will look back and pinpoint the exact day when exorcism became more socially acceptable than homosexuality. I’m ashamed that it even happened during my lifetime. From American Family Radio’s “Today’s Issues”:
TIM WILDMON: And let me just say one other thing, and we’ll go on to our next caller. And I’m not a psychologist, or a psychiatrist, or a social scientist, or anything like that. But I have heard from people who know and understand these things that two of the most difficult sins or bondage to break out of are alcoholism and homosexuality.
LOU SHELDON: Oh definitely, because the groove is built, and I’ve talked to many psychotherapists who are Christian, and they say once you enter into that lifestyle — Now, you may have gender identity conflict — that’s the medical-scientific name for homosexuality — where you’re attracted to the same-sex person, but once you enter into the culture, into the music, into the gay bars, into the gay literature, into the gay theater, and all of that kind of — and gay travel — once you immerse yourself into that, you have really put yourself into a groove that only a sort of an exorcism can release you from.
What’s a good way to release these clowns from bigotry?

“gay theater”? Isn’t that redundant?
