’Ex-Gay’ Movement Pushes Its Books Into Libraries

An anti-gay organization has posted a sample letter and book titles in encouraging its members to request their local libraries to stock titles promoting to so-call "ex-gay" movement.

A posting from Peter LaBarbera, the president of the anti-gay group Americans for Truth About Homosexuality says that the sample letter and the list of "ex-gay" titles comes from P-FOX, Parents and Friends of Ex-Gays, which is an anti-gay counter-organization to P-FLAG.

LaBarbera's posting announced that his organization and P-FOX would work together with what LaBarbera termed "other pro-family groups and ministries" in order, LaBarbera wrote, "to attain--at the very minimum--balance in the selections that libraries carry on the homosexual issue."

Added LaBarbera, "There is no logical or common sense reason why taxpayer-funded public libraries should make available every latest 'gay'-affirming book--including those designed to open up young minds to the false and dangerous notion that homosexuality is normal--while NOT carrying faith-based and ex-'gay' books that oppose a pro-homosexual ideology."

The letter, forwarded from P-FOX, asked readers "to order ex-gay books." The P-FOX letter noted that the professional code of ethics requires librarians to stock books reflecting various sides of issues.
