Mike Johnson’s wife deletes her anti-gay therapy website — but the internet has receipts
HuffPost reported on Friday that Kelly runs Onward Christian Counseling Services. It dug around the business’s website. It offered a link to its 2017 operating agreement.
This states the business operator’s belief that sex is offensive to God if it does not take place between a man and woman married to one another.It went on to lump homosexuality in with bestiality and incest.“We believe and the Bible teaches that any form of sexual immorality, such as adultery, fornication, homosexuality, bisexual conduct, bestiality, incest, pornography or any attempt to change one’s sex, or disagreement with one’s biological sex, is sinful and offensive to God.”The agreement was signed, in his role as a public notary, by Mike Johnson.Business Insider ran another report into Kelly Johnson’s business yesterday.
It says her counseling service divides people into some rather antiquated personality types, loosely based on the teachings of the Greek physician Hippocrates.So-called “Temperament counseling” splits people into the categories: Melancholy, Choleric, Sanguine, Supine, and Phlegmatic.The system was devised by Richard and Phyllis Arno, who founded the National Christian Counselors Association in the 1980s.
They were inspired by the work of a notorious homophobe called Tim LaHaye.The National Christian Counselor’s Association encourages therapists and clients to fully engage with their faith, even if it means operating in an unorthodox way.Kelly Johnson’s website made no explicit mention of offering conversion therapy.
