Nobody should encourage and/or endorse anyone going through with practices that don't work and often results in increased chances of suicide for the people who are victimised by these practices.
The only way people who are unhappy with their sexuality (which is, let's face it, often because of outside factors) will ever find happiness is with acceptance of who there. There's no sexuality change operation and there never will be. Sexuality is just a part of who we are, if it could be changed we would have likely found out how by now.

..yeah that is exactly what it is, it’s reinforcing that, that person is right to hate themselves and encouraging shame, which will only ever create more self hate and as you say, until a possible extreme of suicide may be the end result...so extremely unethical, un-Christian, un-Catholic and really Un everything...nothing positive at all in any way...
