Concept information

Preferred term

Christianity and homosexuality  

Definition(s)

  • The latter part of the 20th century has seen an increasing awareness of the intersection between gender identity and matters of religion and spirituality. As the social-scientific awareness of sexual “orientation” has increased, particularly among Western industrialized nations, the ambivalence with which Christian institutions approach homosexual persons and same-gendered relationships has also increased.
