Exodus International, one of the largest and most visible "ex-gay" Christian organizations issued a statement Wednesday in which Exodus president Alan Chambers apologized to the LGBT community for "years of undue suffering and judgment at the hands of the organization and the Church as a whole."
Chambers went on to apologize for attempting to "cure" homosexual individuals through discredited "conversion" therapy. When speaking of the controversial practice, he said "I understand why I am distrusted and why Exodus is hated."
