The first link you provided is material authored by Paul Cameron who claims to be a psychologist.

FYI:

On December 2, 1983, the American Psychological Association (the largest professional organization of psychologists in the U.S.) sent Paul Cameron a letter informing him that he had been dropped from membership. Early in 1984, all members of the American Psychological Association received official written notice that "Paul Cameron (Nebraska) was dropped from membership for a violation of the Preamble to the Ethical Principles of Psychologists" by the APA Board of Directors."

At its membership meeting on October 19, 1984, the Nebraska Psychological Association adopted a resolution stating that it "formally disassociates itself from the representations and interpretations of scientific literature offered by Dr. Paul Cameron in his writings and public statements on sexuality."

In 1985, the American Sociological Association (ASA) adopted a resolution which asserted that "Dr. Paul Cameron has consistently misinterpreted and misrepresented sociological research on sexuality, homosexuality, and lesbianism" and noted that "Dr. Paul Cameron has repeatedly campaigned for the abrogation of the civil rights of lesbians and gay men, substantiating his call on the basis of his distorted interpretation of this research."

He doesn't seem like a very reliable source of information to me.

I have to ask since you haven't replied to any of my comments, do you support equal rights for Gays?

Not this again. The information you cite regarding Dr. Cameron has been discredited on FR many times, as well as the author who pushes it, Pietrzyk. FYI: Dr Cameron resigned from the APA in good standing.

A rebuttal to the accusation that Dr. Cameron was dropped from the American Psychological Association (APA).
