And would you hold the same view if a racist adoptive couple who believed in the nonexistent science of race conversion delivered their black child up to this woman for 'deniggerfication'?

After all going by that post science doesn't seem to factor into it as long as someone believes it could work, right?

More than that, I am not convinced that any form of ex-gay therapy could anything but harmful. Patients don't benefit from getting defrauded.

A bit different.

Race is FACT. Religion is a belief system. People who BELIEVE black people are bad people or skin colour makes a person what they are ARE wrong in the factual sense.

Religion on the other hand is a belief system and if some one comes looking for help, i don't see the problem with some one giving them help if they share the same belief system.

Stupid bitch. I can't believe some people think being gay is a choice. Its as much of a choice as me having to wear glasses.

I hope she's fired and has no pension so she will have no money when she's old. That'll teach her for being an intolerant cow.

It's not about belief systems. What Mrs. Pilkington did was abuse the trust her patients had in her. Using pseudopsychology on vulnerable and naive people (there are so many people who seek therapy out there who lack the capacity to make important decisions) and passing it off as genuine therapy is nothing short of fraud and charlatanism. Not surprising given the common inclination of manipulative people is to target easy prey for their personal gratification.

Homosexuality is no longer considered a mental disorder and quite rightly so. If she is attempting to "cure" perfectly normal human behaviour like homosexuality (no disorders or mental illnesses), then she is in the wrong profession. There are already enough churches in the world where she can push her ideological agenda.

[keithafc]

Fair enough. I think if she was going to offer help, she should not of done it during work.

But is it not the right of the individual to seek this "treatment" if they so wish?

Have to agree here with you Livia and also Zippy's posts too, she is at the very least misleading anyone who goes to her so as you say Livia,she has overstepped the boundaries of her profession.

he can seek what he likes but she doesn't have to offer up practices that are not within her realms as a registered psychotherapist.

If he asked her to amputate his leg would you think it ok for her to do so?

Yeah, fair enough I suppose.

[InOne]

Maybe if she gets beaten or something it will cure her faith in humanity.

She can practice whatever she wants. HOWEVER, she needs to be stripped of her accreditation. That's an endorsement from that board, which has certain requirements to be met. They can't go along with this.
