LOL--GOP convention performer, McClurkin is "is ex-gay and proud."
Bush backer gives some straight talk

Gospel singer Donnie McClurkin - who'll perform Thursday night at the Republican Convention before President Bush's acceptance speech - is ex-gay and proud.

Actually, the 44-year-old McClurkin calls himself a "reformed bisexual." "I was involved at one time in bisexuality, but it was God that delivered me from that," McClurkin told Lowdown.

"There is a way out, there is change, there is another way," added the Grammy-winning artist, who's the father of a young son as well as the pastor of the Perfecting Faith nondenominational church in Freeport, N.Y.

"Those that want help, I am here to help. There may be someone at the convention that the message could reach."
-snip-

He's quoted on the Christian Broadcasting Network's Web site as harshing homosexuals: "I'm not in the mood to play with those who are trying to kill our children."

4. He's here to help alright
He just hopes some homosexual will reach out to him so they can have a secret dalliance, and he'd deny it, the damned hypocrite.

10. "...those who are trying to kill our children." ???
<snip>He's quoted on the Christian Broadcasting Network's Web site as harshing homosexuals: "I'm not in the mood to play with those who are trying to kill our children." <unsnip>


"Kill our children"? Is he equating homosexuality with infanticide? Or is it the usual "damned for all eternity" crap that the born again love to prattle on about? Regardless - if he's claiming that homosexuals are pedophiles (as the case would seem) AND he's speaking from personal experience - shouldn't he be registered as a sex offender? Bear in mind, these are the same people who have believe that "thinking it = guilty".
