Ex-Gay Therapy Group closes Apologizes to LGBT Community

[ClosedCaption]

good grief, you people are such whiners you need a apology for everything in life..

thin skinned and shallow

No one whined, no one asked for an apology. You are not a victim, they apologized on their own. No one forced them and your whining about whining that doesn't exist is noted

What I did see, was your lack of a cogent response.

Irony seeing a lack or cogent response while lacking a cogent response. Classic Tempurpedic.

How many times is Steph going to post in a thread she doesn't care about? I'd hate to see what happens when she does care

Exodus International has been destroying people's lives for 40 years. Am I supposed to be happy that 40 years too late they figured out their "therapy" was bullshit?

They've got a lot of making up to do.

Former APA President Blasts Gay Rights Ban on Sexual Reorientation Therapy for Denying Patient Choice

July 31, 2013 By Daniel Greenfield

This is an important point. The entire assault on ex-gay therapy is about denying patients access to a service that they want and need… for ideological reasons.

The gay rights movement claims that sexual reorientation is quackery. And that’s where this op-ed by Nicholas Cummings, a former president of the American Psychological Association and a San Francisco therapist, comes in. His credentials for challenging the gay rights movement on this issue are hard to deny.

...

And here’s the important part.

But contending that all same-sex attraction is immutable is a distortion of reality. Attempting to characterize all sexual reorientation therapy as “unethical” violates patient choice and gives an outside party a veto over patients’ goals for their own treatment. A political agenda shouldn’t prevent gays and lesbians who desire to change from making their own decisions.

But the gay rights movement is all political agenda which leads LGBT into irreconcilable absurdities.

The LGBT movement wanted to claim that homosexuality is genetic, not a choice, for political reasons… even though genetic is hardly the same as immutable.

To make this argument stick, the gay rights movement then had to argue that every single person who decides they’re gay is following an inescapable biological drive that cannot be in any way altered. And that to claim otherwise is bigotry.

...

It’s not. But it’s not about science. It’s about agenda.

Whatever the situation at an individual clinic, accusing professionals from across the country who provide treatment for fully informed persons seeking to change their sexual orientation of perpetrating a fraud serves only to stigmatize the professional and shame the patient.

Shaming the patient is the point. For some people, validating their lifestyle to escape that sense of shame requires shaming those who don’t go along with the agenda.
