1,400 UK pastors have signed a petition asking the government to strike down a proposal that bans so-called conversion therapy. While the UK government is currently accepting proposals on how to legislate the ban, the Evangelical Alliance believes an expansive definition of conversion therapy could restrict religious freedoms. The coalition of church leaders who have signed the petition said they will continue to instruct their children on the sanctity of sex and marriage, even if it means going to prison.
