Likely they moved a pointer to where the content was actually stored. It’ll probably be back up on monday.

It’s been missing for at least 24 hours.

I take strong exception to your view that NARTH is the only source for therapy regarding SSA issues. In fact, I see the organization as a pretty biased and misleading source. And in fact it is too bad that political issues dominate NARTH. Take a look at the website and you will find NARTH fighting all kinds of political battles.

There were two SIT conferences since 2006 but they were not open to the public. I think you are right that we should do that. Watch this space because if the SIT folks ever organize a conference, it will be announced here.

For example we travel each year from latinamerica.

Meanwhile you discuss about “doctrinal issues” between NARTH and therapist a lot of new therapist get lost without new approaches like Sexual Identity Therapy Framework and this impact of course in a lot of clients that can be benefit with frameworks like this….

Its very sorry that political issues are still dominate prior therapeutic agenda.

At least you should try to organize a Conference

Still, I wanted to say that even though we hold very different views when it comes to gay therapy, I give credit where credit is due, I thank you for speaking up against this paper. It should not be condoned by anyone, considering the atrocities it trivializes.

Don’t let what people are saying keep you from doing the right thing! 🙂
