UPDATE! NARTH calls on another expert to say, “Gays can change.” (video)
Dr. Nicholas Cummings, Former APA President (1979-1980)
Blog master’s note:
I find the below information very disconcerting by NARTH. Dr. Robert Spitzer, in a previous post, specifically called out NARTH and other anti/ex-gay agenda groups to stop using his invalid research results regarding “gays can change.” Since that time, NARTH has attempted to find a replacement for Dr. Spitzer with a former APA president, Nicholas Cummings, to revive their cause.

Many of us who live in Florida are familiar with 17-year old, Zachery (Zach) Gray’s attempted suicide by hanging last year. Zach’s nearly fatal suicide has left him brain-damaged and never to walk again. It has been suspected that Zach had been a victim of allegedly anti-gay bullying by his Zephyrhills High School classmates for sometime with little to no support or protection from the school’s staff, which may have motivated his suicide attempt. Just recently, Zach’s parents released Zach’s hospital photos and treatment. Now, more than ever, Zach’s parents seek answers that influenced their son’s nearly fatal decision. (more…)
Dr. Robert Spitzer’s strong video interview message to the anti/ex-gay groups, “the people that are pushing the ex-gay idea, are so full of hatred for homosexuality…”
Dr. Robert Spitzer’s message to groups pushing the ex-gay and anti-gay agenda:

I’m curious as to whether they have said anything or how they live with the fact that the one study that they’ve always been citing, has now been taken away from them. I would think that’s a pretty rough place to be in. The people that are pushing the ex-gay idea, are so full of hatred for homosexuality really, that I don’t think that they can respond in an ethical way.

Whew! I’m not sure how this happens in one week, but here’s a different video, hot off the presses, (5/29/12) of another church promoting discriminatory messages against gays and lesbians, but this time through a 5-year old singing,

(Adapted from the Chronicle of Higher Education on May 18, 2012): Robert L. Spitzer retired years ago but his influence has not. That’s why his recantation last month of his own paper, research purporting to show that therapy could turn some homosexuals into heterosexuals, has such extraordinary resonance. The work of Dr. Spitzer, a psychiatrist and Columbia University emeritus professor–who actually got homosexuality removed from the medical list of mental disorders in 1973–rippled across society.
