Doesn't HLA advertise that all counselors hold Masters'? MOst of the counselors I've seen hold a Bachelor's or less. Is that not false advertising?

--- Quote ---I am not trying to say that these studies are infallible. Neither is the other side of the debate infallible. But, leave it open to the possibility that genetics play a role in whether or not a person has a predisposition to become an alcoholic.

READING FOR COMPREHENSION!!!!!! ::bangin:: ::bangin::
Yes, genetics may predispose someone to have adverse reactions to alcohol or even to become a full-blown alcoholic. Predispositions. That doesn't mean they're genetically doomed to be alcoholics.
--- Quote ---I am not convinced that some alcoholics are just lazy and could put down the bottle if they wanted to. Some would love nothing better, but, lack the ability to whether it be psychological or biological.

It's a matter of when it becomes important enough to the person, not laziness or lack of willpower. When someone who has a drinking problem has truly had enough, they'll stop.

You Know That Gene for Alcoholism?
Nearly two decades ago, Ken Blum said he had found the gene for alcoholism. His claim to have discovered the source of all addiction proved to be premature. But people have been hoping there is a gene for alcoholism and/or addiction ever since.
There isn’t. In Addiction-Proof Your Child, I note: “One surprising result of studying the genome is the discovery of just how little we can tell based on particular genes. Most of the DNA on human chromosomes is not organized into specific genes. Much of this DNA directs the pace at which other genes express themselves. . . . For these reasons and others, simple relationships between individual genes – or even groups of genes – and specific traits are rare.”
The Sunday New York Times wrote: “Last month, a consortium of scientists . . . .found that the human genome might not be a ‘tidy collection of independent genes’ after all, with each sequence of DNA linked to a single function. . . . Instead, genes appear to operate in a complex network, and interact and overlap with one another and with other components in ways not yet fully understood. . . . [T]hese findings will challenge scientists ‘to rethink some long-held views about what genes are and what they do.’”

When did he get banned? Wow. He must have really spammed it. I don't think I've ever seen anyone else get banned. Link to a discussion about it?

"Failure to conform" was the cause of the banning.
Flooding was what was written down as the official record.

What I did was wrong and in bad taste? Mr. Pot, I'd like you to meet Mr. Kettle. You are the epitomy of bad taste, Who. Seriously. You couldn't parent your own child and sent her off to an RTC which, by all accounts, screwed her up worse than she was to being with. Speaking of which, shouldn't you be defending programs over on the ASR thread?
Your ability to take a legitimate thread and try to twist it around to distort facts and distract is amazing. You really don't give up, do you?
And yes, if the person in charge of nutrition was the subject of something PUBLIC THAT ANYONE CAN READ (please, get that fact through your thick skull), then I would hope that people who know what kind of institution HLA is would question that person's credentials. Considering HLA's track record, that would be the smart thing to do.
"Imagine if the word gets out and prospective parents find out that HLA is hiring counselors with degrees in Psychology and others with double majors." Your own words. Yet HLA states that they only hired counselors with MASTER'S DEGREES. What is so hard for you to understand here?

What you did was wrong and in bad taste. You shouldn’t disrespect other people you don’t know. The announcement was made public and was intended to share their celebration of marriage.

We know, you have exposed them, you have all the bridal announcements, on back up disc, as proof. Your source of information has amazed us parents. Imagine if the word gets out and prospective parents find out that HLA is hiring counselors with degrees in Psychology and others with double majors.
HLA should pray the cook doesn’t get married and expose to the world that he has a background in nutrition. That would open a whole new level of questions… is he certified by the state? If he isn’t we should expose them and shut the school down?
