Sarah Palin's church wants you to pray away the gay!!!1
ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Gov. Sarah Palin's church is promoting a conference that promises to convert gays into heterosexuals through the power of prayer.

"You'll be encouraged by the power of God's love and His desire to transform the lives of those impacted by homosexuality," according to the insert in the bulletin of the Wasilla Bible Church, where Palin has prayed for about six years.

Palin's conservative Christian views have energized that part of the GOP electorate, which was lukewarm to John McCain's candidacy before he named her as his vice presidential choice. She is staunchly anti-abortion, opposing exceptions for rape and incest, and opposes gay marriage and spousal rights for gay couples.

Focus on the Family, a national Christian fundamentalist organization, is conducting the "Love Won Out" Conference in Anchorage, about 30 miles from Wasilla.

3. I have been taught through the grace and love of those around
me that God has room for everyone. Love is extended to all of us. Not just those who are percieved as the winners.

4. So, instead of actual work, the GOP recommends talk?
And instead of talk for something worthwhile, the GOP recommends bashing tax-paying citizens?

WTF is wrong with the GOP?
