Profound thanks to Stephen Soldz and to Mary Pipher for their ethical stance concerning the APA condoning psychologist participation in torture methods. We look back in horror at what transpired in Nazi Germany while ignoring similar perversions and encroachments currently committed by our government. Who would believe that in the home of the “free and the brave” fear would lead to violations of the very premises of our international human rights stance. I am appalled and grateful there are those who represent my heartfelt belief in justice for all. Thank you.

Thank you and all members of Psychologists for an Ethical APA for bringing information to the APA convention concerning psychologists participation in torture and interrogation.
Although I am retired from academia and the APA I encourage the membership to remove the present governoring body and replacing them with psychologists who support ethical standards.
Also thanks for having information about Mary Pipher on your web cite — a psychologist that I can feel proud of!
