Same-Sex Civil Marriage
F. Gregory Noveske, M.D.
Westlake, Ohio
To the extent that APA continues to support culturally driven issues that
lack the weight of scientific study, it risks losing its voice on its primary
mission, that of protecting the mental health of the American people.
Recently, the Assembly and Board put aside centuries of precedent by a vote
purporting that same-sex marriages are healthy and good. APA has made an
unholy alliance with a few of its politically driven subcommittees. When APA
leaves its scientific and professional moorings and sails away into left-wing
politics, the American people will trivialize its voice on issues that truly
affect their mental health. Too bad that APA cannot take a pill for common
sense.
