There you go again, Don..prattling on about something you alter in my posts. Don't you ever stop doing that??

If you would have read further, about Baldwin, he DID promote his lifestyle, especially when he had moved to Paris...however, when he returned to the U.S., he left that behind, and became a Christian(his Dad was a minister when James was younger).

Either you didn't read far enough, OR you intentionally left that out!...either way, your post is misleading!

Then you go on to claim I said you were promoting bad science...being as that has been true in the past, it wasn't about you...it was about those who promote bad science to prove a bogus point on which they are basing a political agenda on.....Is that you?....OH, then maybe you ARE in there, but it's not all about you!

Conversion therapy an abject failure???..Are you talking about transgender therapy, which of course, you are not..or therapy for homosexuals who no longer embrace or want to live that lifestyle?
We've been around this bush before..my position is this: IF a homosexual desires to no longer be a homosexual, then therapy should be available to him/her. Got a problem with that??...if so, maybe you need therapy!
..and don't pretend to know that you didn't know I was a counselor, (more while I was younger), and didn't still practice...HOWEVER, it is mostly for those I feel I can help...and BTW, for the last few years I've been doing it pro bono...and as a side note, my recovery rate is far beyond the national average...it's sorta like 'giving back' to humanity.
Any more off the wall questions??...this time let's stop being so deceiving to your perceived 'audience'.....you only halfway got away with it the first time.

Other than that, hope you are doing well....
