Bump for text book publishers to take note.


MANY states have laws which PROHIBIT homsoexuality to be taught as a positive lifestyle.

I agree with the Utah state law. But we can probably expect the communist ACLU (which stands for Anti-Christian Liberal Union) to jump all over this.

They should see if NARTH will produce the textbooks for them.

How exactly does a psychology text book become "outmoded"?

Are people who were mentally ill last year not ill this year?

Psychology in high school? Well, good luck to them. Maybe they could find something from a reprint publisher, or use copies of articles.

"O brave new world, to have no such creatures in it."

I suppose it's an improvement over teaching "they" should be burned at the stake, however.

Stop teaching psychology in high school and the problem goes away.

Most of psychology is utter nonsense anyway. I have read dozens of books on this and the only one that even started to make any sense was Nathaniel Branden's "The Psychology of Self-Esteem" and even Branden admitted the information was his best guess based on his clinical experience.

Thomas Szasz has written some great books on the fraud of Freud and other psychologists and psychiatrists.

The fact that the American Psychiatric Society reversed themselves on the homosexuality issue due to political pressure tells you all you need to know about those quacks.

So the school district in southern Utah County is having trouble finding a replacement for outmoded psychology textbooks at its three high schools.

Easy fix: just go to some used-book warehouse, or find some old closed schools that haven't yet been razed, and collect the textbooks of 40 years ago or older. The upside to this is that the children might actually learn something.

The only think that you need to know about psychology and homosexuality is that it is a mental disorder, and not one single psychological experiment or study has ever proven it to be otherwise... it was dropped from their guides over politics not new science.

State law bans teachers or texts from advocating homosexuality, but Nebo District's policy is more restrictive.

You GO, Nebo!
