Did you even read the article?
NARTH at least is willing consider therapy for homosexuality: providing psychological help for repentent sodomites who are having trouble fully repenting.
FReepers who post dim things give conservatives a bad name. Read stuff before engaging in the text equivalent of 'shooting off your mouth.'
A glimmer of hope for the APA - still I'm glad I dropped my membership five years ago precisely because I was becoming more and more outraged each time I read one of their publications peddling feminist and gay screeds as "research"......
That's quite a story, thanks for the link.
The APA is no longer credible.The philosophy is increasingly liberal/pro-homosexual.Looks like the lunatics have finally taken over the assylum.

These "scientists" feel that everything is relative and nothing has inherent value in itself. Why shouldn't science (or anything else) be subordinated to their larger social and political goals?
Behold postmodern psychology! Its an immoral philosophy.
You have wisdom.
Wish there were more like you!
Leftist radicals began their insidious assault on the APA about 40 years ago. Before that it was a staid, but respectable, professional organization. The real turning point came in the '80's when the scientifically-oriented members abandoned the APA in droves. Now it is essentially a political activist group for the leftist agenda.
Might I suggest to your son to instead major in history and teach it correctly? I think that would help the field most of all. After all, I'm still intent on becoming a psychologist despite crap like this.

I should have so much say in what my children do in life... My son has found history in school awful and there is no way to talk him into doing that to himself. You on the other hand must really enjoy your subject of psychology enough to pull you through. I am glad you are doing that. Godspeed. Take over the APA. : )
