Y to're on the list. I refer to the University of Seville and the list of English universities offering courses or activities related to pseudoscience such as astrology, spiritualism and homeopathy. Http://listadelaverguenza.blogspot.com/ .
The reason you have not taken to obtain that prize is the distribution in the Faculty of Psychology "book" Richard Cohen, a quite freaky that has spent years spreading his therapy aimed at homosexual individuals return to the sacred path of heterosexuality.
is well known that homosexuality was removed from the DSM-IV in 1973 and no longer considered a disease and that most psychological problems associated with this sexual orientation are due to the homophobic prejudices that have had much presence in our society. Combat these prejudices is the primary means to normalize the lives of those who are attracted to persons of the same sex. In contrast, re-pathologizing homosexuality is the most direct way to promote homophobic prejudice and, therefore, increase the exclusion and suffering of this "invisible minority."

I understand the serious and scientific debate is essential to the advancement and consolidation of a science as fragile as psychology, so I provide an opportunity Cohen and look on the net some references on their scientific work. Well, the thing is not easy, nothing here, nothing there. But I find a link to the book that outlines the foundations of his wonderful therapy, so I decide to take a look.
Index already promised, but its content is authentic hard drug. The writer proves to be endowed with a good sense of humor and a rather pessimistic view on the intellectual level of potential readers of his book. The text includes some references that aim to give it a serious, clear that most of these quotes are a bit stale, even one of them is a publication that has not gone through the usual channel of any scientific publication, the peer review. See if this example:
" The fact that Jared's father was prohibited from expressing their anger also was another major influence. When Jared's father was young, he was not permitted to express their anger at home. In Thus, his son sent an unknown part of his character, the angry child repressed "(Exodus 34, 7).
Indeed, the Old Testament is an irrefutable source of unquestionable scientific rigor. And is that the author later says " God has given us all the ability to heal and completely recover anytime ". The truth is that it does not seem acceptable that a psychotherapist charge its patients if the work is going to do another, and I suppose the ethical committee of our professional association would have something to say about it.
But references to the healing power of the Supreme Being are not there to sample some other gems:
" the person in recovery needs to heal your mind, your heart, body and spirit. You need to have real intimacy with oneself, with God, others and Creation. "
" a true and lasting healing to take place when the love of God to manifest and experience through of the people. "
course the proposed therapy is not the exclusive concern of God, also can help in healing from down here :
"You have to do enough exercise, sports and entertainment, and eating a proper diet . It may be useful to weight training with the help of a trained therapist. "
Well, last I read this very reassuring, because I think some of my gay friends are in the right direction, and they love the gym and weight training with qualified trainers. However, I have not noticed any indication that they are becoming heterosexual but rather the opposite. Every time you see them more happy and satisfied with their "deviance."
