Essay REL 3308 Term Paper Religion vs Homosexuality
Recognition of homosexuality is growing beyond the extensive spectrum of American Christianity, including between members of churches that strongly oppose homosexual relationships as wrong, according to an extensive Pew Research Center survey of U.S. religious beliefs and practices. Among a changing religious landscape that has seen a declining percentage of Americans who distinguish as Christian, a majority of U.S. Christians (54%) now say that homosexuality should be accepted, rather than discouraged, by society. While this is still considerably lower than the percentages of religiously unaffiliated people (83%) and members of non-Christian faiths (76%) who say the same, the Christian figure has progressed by 10 percentage points since we conducted a similar study in 2007. It reflects an increasing acceptance of homosexuality among all Americans – from 50% to 62% – during the same period.
