Gay exorcism

Some people believe that being gay is a bad thing, even though it is not. They think that it is like having a bad spirit or demon inside of them. So, they try to perform something called an exorcism to get rid of that bad spirit and make the person not gay anymore.

But, just like we can't catch spirits or demons with our hands, being gay is not something that we can change or control. It is a part of who we are, just like our hair color or eye color. So trying to perform an exorcism on someone who is gay is not only unnecessary, but it can also be harmful and hurtful.

It is important to remember that everyone deserves to be loved and accepted for who they are. Nobody should ever have to go through an exorcism or any other form of discrimination because of who they love or who they are attracted to.
