HOMOSEXUALITY – THE SIN RAISED TO THE DEGREE OF VIRTUE
HOMOSEXUALITY – THE SIN RAISED TO THE DEGREE OF VIRTUE

Summary/Abstract: Homosexuality, from an Orthodox perspective, falls into the category of sins, the root of the condemnation of this sin having its basis in certain scriptural texts. However, the theological and pastoral approach to homosexuality within the Orthodox Church is a taboo subject. On the one hand, there is a lack of work and studies that clarify how to relate to homosexuals in a parish; on the other hand, the testimonies of homosexuals and the problems they face as members of the Orthodox Church are also missing. The current study examines some of the most important Orthodox contributions on homosexuality, the challenges, and the possible answers they raise.
