YLE news reports about a Finnish Christian campaign that warns young people against homosexuality, that was launched on Monday, featured the story of a girl whose faith helped her to stop being bisexual. She said that if murderers can be reformed, homosexuals can be too.

Archbishop of Finland’s dominant Evangelical Lutheran church has condemned the campaign and the Archbishop stressed that the campaign was not organized by the church itself. However, thousands have resigned from church in response, since the organizations behind the campaign were partially funded by the national church tax, YLE reports.
