Radio Free Europe has a story on the anti-gay batshitery being disseminated by a charlatan, non-medical doctor named Mirojlub Petrovic (pictured at right) in Belgrade, Serbia, who claims he can "cure" homosexuality. This whack job also believes that gays should be given the choice of "changing" or receiving the death penalty. I can only presume that in short order the folks at Liberty University and Liberty Counsel, not to mention Alliance Defense Fund, NOM, et al, will soon be wanting to trot out Mr. Petrovic as an expert witness in court cases and fraudulent anti-gay propaganda pieces. Who knows, perhaps the Vatican will retain him as an "expert" as well. The insanity of these homophobes is truly off the charts. It never ceases to dismay me that to these individuals we gays - and I suspect others - are not even viewed as human. Oh, and did I mention that Petrovic believes in theocracy as opposed to democracy? Here are some highlights:
*
Petrovic is not a doctor, however, as has been reported in Serbian and some foreign media. He has a bachelor's of science certificate from an American outfit calling itself the International Institute of Original Medicine, which offers students the chance to become a "Certified Medical Missionary in Original Medicine."
*
How does Petrovic and his team ("me and my friends," as he describes them) claim to cure homosexuality? Quite simply: Patients must cut out junk food from their diet, "drink a lot of water," "reject anything that is diarrhetic, alcohol, caffeine," engage in "physical activity," "rest [at] appropriate times." Plus, one "must think about good things." Oh, and receive regular enemas.
*
In Petrovic's eyes, he isn't just curing gays of an affliction; he's saving them from a possible death sentence. Though he acknowledges that "you cannot execute homosexuals" at this point, he supports a system that would ultimately give gays a choice: change your behavior or face the death penalty.
It didn't take long for me to uncover something about Petrovic that has yet to be reported: he is an acknowledged theocrat who desires a political system in which a king would dispense divinely inspired justice.

Given Petrovic's views, I guess we can expect to find him on the faculty of Regent University or Liberty University any day now.

Does he also believe in bleeding to release the bad humours? How about leeches? I hear they're state of the art....
