I am thinking of another group of people (many PAX viewers, imo) who don't know much about this issue and haven't cared much beyond just believing that the Bible says being gay is wrong, and have never heard "gay" and "Christian" in the same sentence.

No one watches PAX." For one thing, not only (imo) is it news whenever ex-gays manage to get themselves on television or in print as "credible experts" (and not to mention, this is Ex-Gay Watch, whose purpose is to watch and report on ex-gays, and the politics of the ex-gay movement).
