Michael Glatze: “Homosexuality is death, and I choose life!”

That was the message Michael Glatze left on his computer screen at Young Gay America magazine, shortly before he left his job there as the editor in 2007 and walked out of his gay life. As a former gay activist and major figure in the “gay rights” movement, his story is absolutely extraordinary. You can read his incredible story about leaving homosexuality at this link.

Michael Glatze’s story is truly amazing because he was deep in the gay “community,” and he did not have any help getting out—at least not any mortal help:

Knowing no one who I could approach with my questions and my doubts, I turned to God; I’d developed a growing relationship with God, thanks to a debilitating bout with intestinal cramps caused by the upset stomach-inducing behaviors I’d been engaged in.

It is an inspiring testament to the awesome power of God that he reached into the depths of depravity and pulled Michael Glatze out. God gave him a new life and now he is 100% heterosexual. It has been about six years since he left homosexuality, and he has a new perspective on his former life:

Homosexuality is a problem. Let’s just be clear: Everybody knows that homosexuality is not the same thing as heterosexuality. But what not everybody understands is that homosexuality is not a perversion of heterosexuality. Homosexuality is a perversion of the correct relationship between God and His creation, man.

So, what did Michael Glatze mean when he said that homosexuality is death? He might have meant spiritual death, or maybe he was simply observing the effects of gay life around him. The excessive drug use that is common among homosexuals and the alarming HIV infection rates from having frequent unprotected sex with many strangers are two factors. As noted in my prior post, the meth usage rates among gay men have been found to be as much as 20 times that of the general population. The HIV rates are even worse.

According to the CDC, the number of infections from gay male sex in 2011 was 30,573. The number for straight male sex is 4,588. Those numbers are even more striking when you consider that gay men make up less then 3% of the population. Using the 3% figure for the population of gay men, you can calculate that the infection rate for gay men is 215 times the rate for straight men:

Gay to Straight infection ratio = (30,573/.03)/(4588/.97) = 215

In other words, if all of the gay men had been straight, only 30,573/215 = 142 of them would have been infected. That means that 30,573 – 142 = 30,431 fewer infections would have occurred. Among the 30,431 infections that were caused by homosexuality, there will be a large number who suffer a premature death from AIDS. So, Michael Glatze may have been speaking literally when he said that “homosexuality is death.”

Despite what you have heard about homosexuality in the media, there are many others who have left it. There is a Facebook page here for those who have found Jesus and left homosexuality behind them.

You can find resources there and compelling stories on how God has helped many people overcome homosexuality. If you need help, you might want to contact them. Be sure to like their page and tell your friends. You never know who might need help.
