This article is less than a year old, but should be re-examined in light of the "gay" agenda's strategy of forcing homosexual marriage down our collective throats.

Pushing the envelope - breaking barriers, contempt for traditional morality and even common sense - these are the by-words and slogans of the "gay" community. After one barrier of sexual behavior is destroyed, others must be breached. That's the nature of the "gay rights" movement.

Homosexual Agenda Ping - an article that was published more than half a year ago, but deserves reading. Contempt for every restriction of sexual behavior is the unifying mentality in the "gay" movement. Equal predation for all. (Unless you're the prey.)

Nothing and no one is exempt from being used as an object of perverse sexual gratification, so why should sex acts traditionally considered sick, depraved, illegal or sinful be sancrosanct?

Let me know if anyone wants on/off this ping list.

"Should These Conditions Be Normalized?"

Definitely not. They should remain what they are. Deviant abberations.

"not of the pathological origins of a condition, but of its disabling effect in the present. Without such evidence for observable distress and disability, a condition is generally not considered to be a mental disorder."

As stated later in the article, a sociopath cannot be considered "ill". That would be folk like serial killers, slashers, rapists...they don't feel discomfort with their actions.
That means that there is little that is a mental illness. ADD? No, kids are ok...its the adults who can't cope. They are the ones who should be treated, not the kids.
Anything not physiological should not be treatable. Why should agoraphobia be a mental disorder, according to this?
And how can a homosexual get treatment if the Dr. is going to say he is normal?

The APA is fast becoming irrelevant. Is what they do "science"? Not in my mind, not anymore.

If you live in a society where showing your ankle is considered to be a perversion, then you are perverse if you persist in showing your ankle.
