		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Aight, thank you. A second question would be, is the APA and other psychological associations officially against Cameron research? &lt;/blockquote&gt;
In a word? Yes!

Let&#039;s put it this way
&lt;blockquote&gt;
the American Psychological Association (APA) on 2 December 1983, voted to drop from the membership “for lack of cooperation with the Committee on Scientific and Professional Ethics and Conduct” (a copy of this letter is &lt;a href=&quot;http://psychology.ucdavis/edu/rainbow/html/cameron_apaletter.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;posted online&lt;/a&gt; at University of California - Davis &lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>Aight, thank you.  A second question would be, is the APA and other psychological associations officially against Cameron research?  

WOuld also like to know if there are any other pseudoscientific research thats prolific(or not) amongst conservative brochures, conferences, etc... other than cameron research. I had(PC broke) a document that i obtained from a random internet blog that was filled with footnotes. It had everything ive heard, in a more straightforward and grotesque way(with a few suprises here and there) that seemed very much like Cameron research. Oddly enough, after sifting through the references I couldnt directly link any to Cameron research. I know Cameron abundantly uses footnotes, so that wasnt really what seriously caught my attention, but the dates that these footnotes had ranged to 2005 and that got me thinking.</description>

		<description>Joel,

pseudoscience is something that is masquerading as science in order to dishonestly influence opinion.  It usually pretends to use the Scientific Method, but when inspected it turns out to either be contrived to produce a desired result or draws conclusions that are not supported by the data.</description>

		<description>Yes. That would be the one.

This is the language I was trying to find...&lt;blockquote&gt;Section 101(a) (8 U.S.C. 1101(a)) is amended--

(1) in paragraph (15)(K)(ii), by inserting `or permanent partnership&#039; after `marriage&#039;; and

(2) by adding at the end the following:

`(52) The term `permanent partner&#039; means an individual 18 years of age or older who--

`(A) is in a committed, intimate relationship with another individual 18 years of age or older in which both parties intend a lifelong commitment;

`(B) is financially interdependent with that other individual;

`(C) is not married to or in a permanent partnership with anyone other than that other individual;

`(D) is unable to contract with that other individual a marriage cognizable under this Act; and

`(E) is not a first, second, or third degree blood relation of that other individual.

`(53) The term `permanent partnership&#039; means the relationship that exists between two permanent partners.&#039;.
&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

Sorry, if this may have been mentioned in the videos, but I&#039;m on an outdated system with dialup that makes it impractical to stream the videos. :(

Appreciate the info and quick reply.</description>
