I belonged to a church that tried to "pray the gay away". Not as extreme as that in the video, but possibly just as damaging and certainly no less silly. That's what you get, though, from people who refuse to update their beliefs from 1,000 years ago.

Seems to me that the whole "Being Gay" thing just does not fit into the list of things that need an exorcism to be free of.

I think being Gay is morelikechild molestation, in that you become free of it with help of Doctors and such, not as a result of a one-time exorcism...
I actually agree with you. It is not demonic these people give themselves freely. The only cure is they have to beleave the scriptures and chose to make the change. What they need is truth and the only place they can get it is from scripture and the Holy Spirit as well as a group who is like minded in the truth and forsake the lies.
