Paul Orlousky from 19 Action News uncovered a preacher right here in Northeast Ohio who thinks gays are being "recruited" - and has put up a billboard suggesting they can be cured.

From WOIO-TV:

"It even grieves us even to see many young people who are being persuaded that way," the Pastor said.

"You use the word persuaded," said Reporter Paul Orlousky.

"Yes," replied Pastor Davis.

"All right, well some would say, well, I was born that way," said Orlousky.

"We disagree," Pastor Davis replied. "It is not a civil rights issue, it is not a birth issue, it is a choice and a choice God can give victory over."
