By explicitly supporting such pseudo-therapy, the @placeholder has done more than simply turn a blind eye to science and the potentially deadly consequences of the negative attitudes and self-hatred that such "treatments" reinforce.
Apparently working under the impression that they understand the science of sexuality better than the World Health Organization or the American Medical or Psychological or Psychiatric associations, Texas Republicans made a bold statement last weekend. With zero debate, they adopted a party platform that includes support for a widely discredited form of mental health "treatment" known as "reparative therapy." Also called "conversion therapy," this dangerous pseudo-medical practice aimed at transforming homosexuals into heterosexuals has been widely demonstrated to be both ineffective and harmful, not to mention offensive. The clearly misguided assumption underlying such therapy is the belief (often reinforced by self-serving interpretations of any number of religious texts) that homosexuality is a disease. However, much like drapetomania (the pseudo-scientific "disease" an enterprising white man conveniently identified in the mid-19th century was described as the condition that led black slaves to attempt escape), homosexuality is in fact not an illness, but rather a fact of human nature. And rejecting human nature can have devastating effects on the psyche, demonstrating that if there is a real disease that needs fixing here, it's homophobia, not homosexuality. @highlight Texas GOP endorsed "reparative therapy" to convert gays to straight orientation @highlight Melody Moezzi says such therapy isn't recognized by legitimate science @highlight She says two states have banned the therapy for minors @highlight Moezzi: Young Republicans are going to be repelled by such decisions

This creates an intolerable situation for Israeli civilians in southern @placeholder, who have the right to live without fear of attack from Gaza.
Gaza City (CNN) -- Explosions rumbled through Gaza City all night into Friday, and shortly after sunup, two detonations landed just 500 to 600 yards away from CNN's team sending it running for cover inside the hotel. A litany of bombardments provided for a sleepless night of hearing and feel incoming ordinance exploding and watching rockets leaving Gaza for Israel. Falling bombs made doors clatter and sometimes even one's bones. Clouds of smoke sprouted into the sky paralleling the repetition of thunderous booms. New destruction will await Egypt's new Prime Minister Hesham Kandil, when he arrives Friday morning in Gaza to meet with Palestinian officials. @highlight Israel says 422 rockets fired from Gaza into Israel in past two days @highlight Warplanes bomb sites in Gaza City overnight @highlight Both sides tweet photos of children struck by the violence @highlight Egyptian PM, delegation head to Gaza on Friday morning

But @placeholder said recently that responding to the earthquake requires the country to transcend partisan differences.
Santiago, Chile (CNN) -- Sebastian Pinera was sworn in Thursday as president of Chile, taking over a country battered by a recent earthquake but with a strong economy and stable social institutions. Pinera, 60, succeeded Michelle Bachelet, a popular president who steered the country through the global economic downturn and promoted progressive social reforms. Pinera, a billionaire, is the first conservative to lead Chile since the fall of Gen. Augusto Pinochet's military dictatorship in 1990. Educated in Chile and at Harvard University in the United States, Pinera is an economist, investor, businessman and former senator. Bachelet, a liberal, defeated Pinera in the presidential elections in 2005. She endorsed Pinera's opponent in a runoff election in January. @highlight Sebastian Pinera, 60, succeeds Michelle Bachelet @highlight Term limits prevented Bachelet from seeking second consecutive term @highlight Pinera is first conservative to lead Chile since fall military dictatorship in 1990

Guantanamo Bay detainees have long been considered America's most dangerous enemies. So what happens when they walk free -- like the five detainees swapped for U.S. Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl? Do they return to terror activities or transition to quiet, private lives away from the mayhem? Well, it's a mixture of both. How dangerous is this latest swap? Mathematically, it's not an even swap. But President Barack Obama's administration maintains it's not a risky move for the United States. The five detainees have been at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba for years, and out of commission for a long time. They probably don't have extensive networks to tap into, according to two senior U.S. officials. @highlight About 17% of Gitmo detainees return to terrorist activities, report says @highlight As of last month, the Guantanamo Bay detention facility had 154 detainees @highlight Not everyone at Guantanamo Bay has been found guilty of terrorism

Nothing said during the 80-minute in-flight interview alters the strong @placeholder opposition to gay relationships or marriage, or the Church ban on actively gay priests.
Pope Francis yesterday signalled a more tolerant era of Vatican thinking after he spoke out in defence of homosexuals. In remarks at odds with traditional rhetoric, the Pontiff refused to condemn homosexuality, saying: ‘We must be brothers.’ In the most conciliatory words yet from the Vatican on the subject of gay priests, he added: ‘If a person is gay and seeks God and has goodwill, who am I to judge him?’ The new Pope used a talk with journalists covering his visit to Brazil to emphasise Roman Catholic teaching that says those who have gay orientation should be accepted. @highlight Previous Pope had signed document saying gay men should not be priests @highlight But Pope Francis says gay clergymen should be forgiven and sins forgotten @highlight Comments came as he returned from wildly successful tour of Brazil
