Therapists who treat homosexuality ‘terrorized’ by Brazil’s psychology council says expert
Translated from the Portuguese original by Matthew Cullinan Hoffman July 5, 2012 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) - Marisa Lobo, a Brazilian psychologist who identifies publicly as a Christian , answers questions from pro-family activist Julio Severo about her struggle against Brazil’s leftist Federal Council of Psychology (CFP), which has forbidden her to publicly associate her Christianity with her identity as a psychologist, a ruling that has recently been condemned by the Religious Right and Liberty Committee of the Order of Attorneys of Brazil as unconstitutional. Marisa Lobo Lobo says that she was threatened with the loss of her license by the CFP in response to complaints from homosexual activists over her blog and Twitter posts condemning the “gay kit” that the Brazilian government tried to distribute to public school students in 2011, with the stated purpose of fighting “homophobia.” The kit’s explicit contents and positive portrayal of homosexual behavior provoked outrage
