Note: the researchers who are referenced on Burr's site are published in  peer-reviewed journals. The NARTH site provides exposure for researchers whose work is not accepted in those journals. NARTH contends that politics is the reason. The anti-NARTH position is that it's simply bad science.

----  Snips from Homosexuality and the Possibility of Change: Disclaimer and Limitations: -- We do not believe that anyone should be pressured or forced to change. . . . .This is not a discussion of ethics nor of questions such as whether anyone ever "voluntarily" wants to change their sexual orientation. . .  It is also true that some of the individuals in these studies may not have wanted to change if they lived in our time. None of this, however, changes the fact that change happened or did not happen.
