Germany: Gay conversion 'therapy' ban presented
Deutsche Welle ^ | 06.11.2019 | es/rc (dpa, EPD)

German Health Minister Jens Spahn announced his plan on Tuesday to ban so-called gay conversion therapy nationwide. Although the practice is not as common in Germany as it is in other nations, it is still sometimes practiced in religious communities.

“Homosexuality is not a disease and therefore does not require treatment,” said Spahn, presenting his findings after having consulted with an expert commission of 46 representatives from the field of politics and science on whether a ban would be advisable, legally and medically.

Spahn added that despite being called “therapy,” the practice “makes you sick and is not healthy.”

The idea behind conversion therapy is to reprogram the minds of young people — usually children or teenagers — to make them averse to the idea of gay sex or romance, via methods such as electroshock therapy and aversive conditioning techniques, many of which are considered mentally abusive by medical professionals. …

But I suppose it’s still okay to convert regular kids to the opposite sex? Only if you want to try to make them normal is it forbidden, but if you want to chop the penis off a little boy and calling the girl that’s fine.

“Alcoholism is not a disease and therefore does not require treatment,”

“Kleptomania is not a disease and therefore does not require treatment,”

"Homosexuality is not a disease and therefore does not require treatment."

"Gender" and "Sexuality" are totally fluid, but...

Homosexuality is hard-wired, intrinsic, and immutable?

You can't change anything but your Gender-identity, which can be changed to anything: Man, Woman, Animal, Vegetable or Mineral?

Fertility is a disease, and does require treatment?

And pregnancy is a life-and-liberty-threatening disease, and requires drugs, surgery, amputation, homicide, whatever it takes to stamp out the pathogen (who just happens to be your own child)?

They barely even even pretend that their "science" is anything but anti-life ideology.

It is good and proper to recruit children into the queer community but rue the day when someone tries to help some misguided soul and return to a normal life

Unlike being queer, right?

Fifty years ago, arrogant atheist “scientists” preached that sex was real, and love was an illusion.

Fifty years later, arrogant atheist “scientists” preach that love is real, and sex is an illusion.

Boy, is that ever true.

It's astounding what the Spirit of Deception is doing to twist people's minds. It's so horrifying and so sad.

Lord help us. And I mean HELP us, Lord.
