Torturing The Gay Away (Powerful Personal Testimony)

Sam recounts the parental love (read physical and psychological abuse, plus death threats) he received from his Christian parents and in "conversion therapy". The literal torture he went through is chilling, but on the up side, he is still alive to tell the tale.

Thing is, I don't think the parents can ever accept him, I marvel at his need for this. That would mean they'd have to own up to all that torture which must lead to their apostasy eventually right? Given their nature I'm sure they'll just hate him for the rest of their lives, they almost have to when you think about it.

That's just one of the horrifying results of domestic abuse. People will almost always try to love their families, or find ways to justify or understand what they did. At least he understands that he's not responsible for their actions. Many people never even make it that far.

This poor kid still has a lot to recover from, and it shows as he is trying to take it in a nonchalant fashion. The individuals who tortured him deserve to be prosecuted and thrown in prison. The parents need to be prosecuted for abuse and thrown in prison as well.

I'd say it's even worse that they're allowed to have kids at all. Not that we can do anything about that other than trying to educate the next generation of future parents.

Aside from their treatment of their son the biggest problem is that people like his parents are allowed to vote.

@ant's downvote seal of approval has been cast, the quality of this video is now indisputable!


Sure would be nice to have a cogent, complete and honest opinion or argument for once, rather than a naked and unsubstantiated downvote, but whatever. Who am I fucking kidding?

Oh, I got one, albeit succint (here): believers go to heaven, non-believers to hell, end of story. So it makes sense that this video, which presents the child-torturers believers in a bad light, should be downvoted.

I for one look forward to not having to share my (non-existent) afterlife with child-beaters, kiddifuckers and 99.8% of criminals.

Press charges! Get them arrested for child abuse and put those idiots in jail. They might deserve a second chance if they were not accepting, but they hurt you and nearly killed you!
