New York, USA, 10th September
2004 (CNA) -
A new film, to be
released next month, debunks the notion that
homosexuality is a fixed sexual orientation. “I Do
Exist!” documents the lives of five individuals who at
one time identified as homosexual but have since left
the homosexual lifestyle.
Churches, colleges, and
schools across the U.S. are scheduled to screen the film
Oct. 9-11 in an effort to counter "National Coming Out
Day," an event celebrated by homosexual groups, reports
AgapePress.
However, the producer, Dr.
Warren Throckmorton of Grove City College, admits it
will be difficult to get the film shown in high school
health classes and public universities, where
homosexuality is viewed as normal, legitimate
behavior.
Throckmorton says his film
conveys a message that is often censored by the media
and homosexual activist groups.
The researcher says that
Coming Out Day promotes the notion that “the only
healthy response to same-sex attraction is to 'come out'
as homosexual and embrace a homosexual
identity.
"The film,” he says, “gives
the narratives of these individuals who've chosen a
different path, one that is consistent with traditional
Church teaching concerning sexuality."
“I Do Exist!” includes
commentary by Dr. Robert Spitzer of Columbia University
and Dr. Mark Yarhouse of Regent University.
