I will hand it to the Alan Chambers... I expected a book filled with bigotry and condescension (despite the author's claims to have "gone through the homosexual lifestyle"), and while I found both of those things, I also found what I believe to be a fair amount of compassion and good will. That's the good news. The bad news is that this author's quest is painfully misguided, believing that the path he chose (trading homosexuality for God's love, as if the two were mutually exclusive) is the path that others must inevitably come to. The most offensive idea Mr. Chambers presents us with is that of equating homosexuality with sexual addiction. Well, when you start with such a ridiculous premise as that, there can be little hope of finding much rational discourse or helpful insight. I feel bad for the author, who apparently had a difficult time "escaping his own sexual impulses", but that's not homosexuality, that's lust. To treat the two as if they're somehow interchangeable immediately discredits Mr. Chambers, and it does an incredible disservice to those having a hard time with their identity and their relationship with God. This book will harm far more people than it will help, I'm afraid.… (más)
