> You are full of it. I have never heard any psychologist, scientist or gay person validate what you're saying. I recently took a psych class..........views like the one you espouse are dated........they were views perpetuated in the early part of the 20th century. Of course, you knew that.

This is simple. You believe I'm wrong? Show me a link that proves it. There is no science to support this claim, and if there WERE science to support we'd all know it.


No dude, you're the one departing from established beliefs. You provide the link!

The reality is that some homosexuality is LEARNED.

From whom, a gay Mr. Rogers?

I'm glad you recently took a psychology course. I'm sure you're now an expert.

I knew more about human psych. than you BEFORE I took the course. I live in the real world and not some fantasy concocted by my imagination.

NY Times: Detainees at Guantanamo stripped, shackled
Coercion and abusive treatment described by former official at prison

cnn.com

Prisoners at the Cuban base include those captured in Afghanistan and Iraq and suspected of association with or membership in extremist organizations. Human rights groups have criticized the United States for indefinitely detaining prisoners at the base, most without charges or legal representation.

The Defense Department said in a statement quoted by the Times that the military was providing a "safe, humane and professional detention operation at Guantanamo."

-----------------------

I don't beleive the state department when they say they have provided humange treatment. Why should I believe them when they claim the detainees are members of extremist organizations?

And how broad is the explanation "association" with extremist organizations?

The Gitmo detainees should either be tried or released.
