Pray your gay away.

Harmon Leon, world-famous infiltrator and former colleague of David Eggers at Might Magazine, has written many hilarious articles, my favorites of which involve his infiltration of the reality TV show Blind Date and his adventures in getting fired from a Jack-In-The-Box in three hours or less.

He has a new infiltration article (via mrpants) is about those Christian support groups that claim you can pray your gay away. It's totally awesome:
Onward Christian Ex-Gays

Here's just a couple of my favorite parts to whet your whistle:

Carol, who has no counseling degrees of any type, decides it's time to begin discussing the proper ways of dealing with the warning signs of gayness, such as a fascination with long hair, earrings, or scarves.

and:

"It's important to recognize that men are attracted to men. We're drawn to masculinity. There's nothing sexual about it," explains the leader, prompting me to wonder, What about guys who are into Thai lady-boys?

That is just scary on many different levels. Especially the level where I'm doomed to hell - several times over.

I'll be sure to keep my eyes peeled for the warning signs of gayness.

The Blind Date infiltration was hilarious.
