    The document discusses different religious views on homosexuality. Many evangelical and conservative Christians are strongly opposed to homosexuality based on passages from the Bible. The Roman Catholic Church recommends homosexuals remain celibate but should be respected. The Church of England is more sympathetic but divided, acknowledging homosexual partnerships can be based on love and commitment. Other Protestants such as Quakers welcome homosexuals into their churches and believe religion concerns spirituality rather than sexuality.
