California has banned the controversial treatment. Now, the biggest ex-gay group, Exodus, is disbanding
Earlier this week, a Pew report raised the possibility that the remarkably quick shift toward public approval of same-sex marriage might be mostly a product of media hype. On Wednesday, two things suggested that, quite the opposite, we're seeing a real, deep societal shift on attitudes about homosexuality.
First, Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) became the third sitting Republican senator to publicly back gay marriage. Then, late Wednesday, the most prominent "ex-gay" advocacy group, Exodus International, announced that it is disbanding. Before that unexpected announcement, Exodus chief Alan Chambers issued a long apology to "members of the LGBTQ community" for "the pain and hurt many of you have experienced."
