American Philosophers’ Association: Members must accept gay ‘marriage

The American Philosophical Association (APA), “the premier philosophical learned society in North America,” has revised its Code of Conduct for professional philosophers to exclude gender-identity dissent by labeling disagreement as “discrimination.”

Unnamed members of the association petitioned the APA to update its code of conduct to include discrimination based on “gender identity.” The APA’s board approved the updated code of conduct.

“The American Philosophical Association rejects as unethical all forms of discrimination based on … sexual orientation (and) gender identification,” the new code reads.

The code specifically forbids “discrimination” for “integrally connected” behavior, such as “sexual conduct expressive of a sexual orientation,” and “same-sex marriage.”

“The only way that the APA can demand that all philosophers and others bow to the politically correct creed that ‘gender’ determines a person’s sex is by ignoring the body altogether,” Father Johannes Jacobse of the American Orthodox Institute told LifeSiteNews. “People are born either male or female. Our bodies tell us which one we are.”
