◦Sex is the final step in joining husband and wife together in a lasting bond.

◦Saving sex until marriage helps preserve a person’s dignity as it something important with a chosen person.

◦Sex should always be open to new life – and nothing should prevent this. This means that physical homosexual relations are not acceptable as life can not be created.

◦However they are not against the person themselves (as love is the basis of Christianity)

◦If someone wishes to leave a same-sex relationship then they must be celibate (not have sex).

2. Others says casual sex is acceptable as long as to doesn’t cause emotional harm

  • Many non-Catholics share the view that adultery is wrong for similar reasons – if two people make a commitment then that should be kept.

    • Some would argue that adultery could be forgiven under some circumstances e.g. in an unhappy marriage where it actually improves the situation.

    • Some would argue that personal happiness is important even if as a secondary effect it causes harm to someone else.

    ◦This means that a homosexual couple can get married but not in a church.

    ◦The Church of England supports same-sex civil partnerships (giving a couple similar legal rights to those of a married couple).
    ◦This reflects the view of many in Britain that all people should have the same rights to marriage.~
