Book Description

May 27, 2010
Overgrown jungles? Mad elephants? Tarzan and Jane? That's what LDS families will find in this book to help shed the clear light of truth on today's dark and tangled ideas about male and female, proper gender roles, the law of chastity, and the God-given sexual appetite. Even more important is the emphasis on developing relationships with each member of the God head and the basic principles of the gospel this book illuminates, which children can learn to apply every day and which can prevent sexual sin like nothing else.

4.0 out of 5 stars Where are our General Authorities? October 11, 2010
Although I applaud the author's effort to teach homosexualist children to despise themselves, I'm disappointed she didn't bring in the Church's big guns. She should have given the Prophet, Apostles, and other LDS general authorities their own characters in this book.

Imagine how much more the children would have been traumatized if Elder Boyd K Packer had been portrayed as an angry old baboon screeching at anyone who stared a little too long at his big, blood-red "rameumptum." Heck, she could have even had him eat a little homosexualist spider monkey to make sure the kids understand just how much they're hated.

The author also missed an opportunity to expose the real-life wickedness of the world's most homosexualist animals. Sure, I suppose a pair of elephants might get into a little same-sex trunk action ever now and then, but I don't think such acts have been observed by scientists, missionaries, or even home teachers. She should have gone with bonobos or penguins or, better yet, juvenile bighorn rams--they've been observed forming homosexualist herds and licking each other's secret parts. They're a perfect target for a good Elder Packer tongue lashing.

But then, it may be enough that the author provides us with way to instill such virtues as shame, self-loathing, hatred, and bigotry in our children. That's why I'm giving this book four stars in spite of its shortcomings.

1.0 out of 5 stars Who needs facts? October 9, 2010
It doesn't matter if it's the truth, as long as you really, really, really want it to be. That is the central message of the so-called "ex-gay" movement in general, and this book specifically. The author cares not a whit for science and facts and reality and all that non-gawdly hogwash, and is proud of her ignorance, proud enough to write a book about it. [...]

1.0 out of 5 stars Disgusting distortion of reality October 9, 2010
By bty
I read through this book and it amazes me how some people can live in such a state of denial.I can't believe anyone would invest the time and money to distribute the writings of an incredibly delusional and emotionally bankrupt family.This kind of book does nothing but educate ignorant people with the inaccurate,bigoted belief system of a very troubled person and is bad for society as a whole.
