I suppose the latter would be much larger.Valtinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07427976389098964420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5048559001654820158.post-73684849724996912382007-08-27T06:51:00.000-07:002007-08-27T06:51:00.000-07:00Thanks for keeping up on this.

I assume it may be as simple as healers would rather heal than serve on boards, yet it leaves us here. It perhaps suggests there is a component to serving in political structures best not shrugged off. (Something I have tried to avoid)<BR/><BR/>In my fantasy, the schism becomes real, and there are two professional organizations. One would become known as "the psychologists against tortue" the other as "the psychologists for torture" PAT and PFT respectively. Perhaps if they won't disavow torture, they could be forced to claim it, adding PFT to their vitae. <BR/><BR/>But even my fantasy falls flat when I realize PFT could enhance their job prospects. What have we become? (sigh)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
