The question of homosexuality is one that threatens to split the Church. Some Church leaders and theologians argue that it is the Trojan Horse that will finally destroy the City of God; it is the grand apostasy that will force another great schism. It is this climate of intellectual panic that makes it difficult to look calmly at the subject. In this lecture we will look at the state of the question from a number of angles, scientific, theological and legal, while keeping a close eye on the debate in the Church.

This lecture was given as a part of the series of lectures on Negotiating the Ethical Minefield.
