Billboards encourage questioning of homosexuality

01/23/2005

Associated Press


GALVESTON, Texas — Billboards scattered across Galveston County and south Houston bear this message: "I questioned homosexuality. Change is Possible. Discover how."

The billboards show a smiling man or woman and promote Focus on the Family's "Love Won Out" conference set for Feb. 19 in Houston.

A Web site promoting the event calls it a "dynamic one-day conference addressing, understanding and preventing homosexuality," but some say the message can be destructive and dangerous.

Galveston resident B. Joe Cline, who runs the Lighthouse Freedom Ministry, organized the effort to put up the 15 billboards.

Cline said his son was gay and is now heterosexual and that his organization works to "prevent homosexuality."
