Goofus, if you are referring to James A. Baldwin, the author, he was homosexual. But I find nothing about him "changing his mind." In fact, he says, "Everybody's journey is individual. If you fall in love with a boy, you fall in love with a boy. The fact that many Americans consider it a disease says more about them than it does about homosexuality."

I agree with him.

As far as "bad science" is concerned, so-called "conversion therapy" has been an abject failure. The American Psychiatric Association has condemned it as "pseudo-science" based on false assumptions. A study conducted prior to 2002 showed an 80% recidivism rate, and of the remaining 20%, most of them embrace celebacy. Several people had to be treated for extreme depression following their so-called "conversion," and there were some six suicides.
   
And you claim that I am promoting "bad science!!"

And you claim to have a degree in Psychology. How long ago was that? Were they teaching trepanning? Drilling holes in the skull in order to let the Evil Spirits out?
