The War on Homosexuality.
The proponents of homosexuality claim that according to American Psychiatrists and Psychologists this is not a disease and they represented such to the Supreme Court of America. Let me puncture the balloon a bit. Please read the following citation carefully:
Errors by the American Psychiatric Association, the American Psychological Association, and the National Educational Association in representing homosexuality in Amicus briefs about amendment 2 to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Cameron, Paul; Cameron, Kirk; Landess, Thomas
Psychological Reports, Vol 79(2), Oct 1996, 383-404.
Abstract
In October 1995, consortiums of psychiatric and educational professional organizations, including the American Psychological Association and the American Psychiatric Association and the National Educational Association, submitted amicus briefs to the U.S. Supreme Court asserting that the scientific literature unequivocally supports the following propositions:
(a) that homosexuals, including homosexual teachers, do not disproportionately molest children,
(b) that children of homosexual parents are not more likely to become homosexuals,
(c) that professionals agree that homosexuality is not a pathology, and
(d) that homosexual attractions are biologically or genetically predetermined and are therefore beyond the control of the individual.
The first two contentions are inconsistent with the scientific literature, and the second two grossly oversimplify a contentious and uncertain literature.
