Now she reveals church lessons when she was a kid taught her that homos exuality was bad and she prayed not to become a lesbian.
She says, "I prayed every day for God to change me and it was, ‘Dear Go d, please don’t let me be gay. I promise to be a good person.’ "I said that prayer every day… sometimes 20 times a day.
"Young people in every corner of America are being told by their church es… that they are damaged goods, and they are not. I have to stand up. I’m in a unique position."
