conversion therapy kills people
 

There should not even be any debate about this. Conversion therapy is a dangerous practice that causes LGBTQ people to harm themselves, even to the point of suicide. There is no legitimate therapeutic use for it. Suggesting that there could be any legitimate usage of conversion therapy makes as little sense as suggesting that there is a legitimate medical use for cigarettes. There is simply no medical evidence to support it. In fact, all available evidence points to the opposite.
