Straight is the Gay, and Narrow is the Way

exorcise, v.t. to call forth or drive away (a spirit)
Chambers Dictionary


An American church with the superbly humble name of Manifested Glory Ministries has let its elders loose on a teenager who seems to be suffering from uncertainty as to his sexual orientation. Even Exodus International, which believes that prayer and counselling can straighten what is gay into something that might qualify for an Anglican episcopacy, disagrees with the Manifestedly Glorious approach. MGM, you understand, has nothing against homosexuals; it's just that the Manifestedly Glorious and Reverend spokesbeing, Patricia McKinney, doesn't agree with their lifestyle. Hence the holy spectacle, posted on YouTube so that its light may not be bushelled, of the teenager driven to convulsions by the sacred catechism of "Rip it from his throat!" and "Come on, you homosexual demon! You homosexual spirit, we call you out right now! Loose your grip, Lucifer!" The Reverend McKinney also doesn't agree with the lifestyle of the English language; she "denied the ritual was an exorcism, describing it instead as a casting out of spirits".
