A discussion of the Lutheran Church’s attitude towards homosexuality and same-sex marriages.
A look at the current, closed position that the Lutheran Church has taken on homosexuality and same-sex marriages. It discusses the way that many other church groups have become more open to these ideas and examines whether the Lutheran Church will be able to follow suit.
The subject of homosexuality is widely-debated in our society, and has been the cause of many arguments, debates, and even hate crimes. Every single person in the United States is entitled to his or her opinion that is what makes this country so great. However, when you have millions of differing opinions, it becomes too easy for people to denounce certain opinions as wrong. What many people do not realize is this: there is a difference between fact or faction and one’s opinion. For instance, a Lutheran’s perspective on homosexuality might be different from that of a Jewish person. Neither person’s opinion is right or wrong; it’s just how that person feels.
