Basically, he came out of the closet - so, his loving parents send him off to a 'christian' program to make him straight again!

Leave some love and support for the poor kid, if you have a Myspace account!

Have you read Alex?s story?

TODAY IS ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF LOCK-UP
OF ALEX ASCH IN A PSYCHIATRIC INSTITUTION,
WHEN HE WAS 16 YEARS OLD

ACTION: ALEX WANTS **YOU** TO BREAK THE SILENCE, AND TELL AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE ABOUT "PSYCHOLOGICAL FASICSM"

One year ago today, Alex Asch was 16 years old. He was proud to be an anarchist activist specializing in animal rights.
Alex was attending the summer session of the Institute for Social Ecology in Vermont to advance his activism. His friends, other students and teachers said he was doing well.
But parents of youth today have nearly absolute power in the USA to lock their children away in psychiatric facilities.
And so one year ago today, private security guards arrived and took Alex to a Utah psychiatric facility, where he remains.
Alex's main request: To break the silence about this "psychological fascism" that can happen to any youth, to any one, any where.
This psychiatric kidnapping is happening to thousands of youth.
This time it happened to an activist youth who was plugged into a number of social change movements. It can happen to you.

In college I had a professor who had been out of the closet for years.  He was  also a war hero.  He enlisted in the marines the day after Pearl Harbor, fought in every amphibiuos campaign in the Pacific, rotated to the European theater for D-day, took part in those landings, and got back to the Pacific in time for Iwo Jima.  When they took the picture of the marines raising the flag he was a hundred yards away, having fought the same battle and taken the same risks as the men who got the Congressional Medal of Honor.  

Trying to cure someone of being gay is like trying to cure them of being left handed:  Pointless, futile, and unneccessary at best, and at worst, actively harmful.

Also,  thanks to Ginger, for the Synanon thought. I posted some Synanon info as comments to some blogs.

Wonder how Smid would answer questions about his relationship to the Synanon Church?

The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts.

HeHe.

Both of you could stand, but then both would be faced with cleaning the seat when you needed to sit.

The easier solution... sit, take a load off, don't be in such a rush. Then no one, including yourself, has to clean the seat.

Morality no longer an issue.
