What is the Christian Science view of homosexuality?
Christian Science sets out a high moral ideal when it comes to human relationships and sex. It accepts the Ten Commandments and teachings of Christ Jesus on these subjects. The book that explains Christian Science says that sex should be limited to marriage, and that marriage is “the legal and moral provision for generation among humankind.” At the same time, Christian Science acknowledges that all of us have a lot of growing to do to reach the standard of pure spiritual love that Christ Jesus taught and lived. It encourages us to be as free as possible from judging each other, while still supporting each individual’s moral and spiritual progress. Christian Science affirms the spiritual identity that we all have from God. We believe this can bring healing to individuals and to society as a whole.
