동성애에 대한 기독교 세계관적 고찰 = A Study of Homosexuality from a Christian Worldview

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Homosexual behavior from a Christian worldview is regarded as sin and abnormal sexual behavior, which is contrary to the structure of the human body, and God’s design for humankind. We studied and refuted various arguments that support the viewpoint that homosexual behavior is normal sexual behavior, such as the argument that one's homosexual trait is determined by genetic and natural factors, the argument that one's homosexual trait is developed without one’s own will, and the argument that the homosexual is free of responsibility because his homosexuality is developed at a very early age. We have presented the statistical data showing the close relationship between homosexual behavior and AIDS, and the rapid increase of Korean teenager AIDS patients caused by homosexual behavior. We have estimated the social expense for homosexual AIDS patients, and it was expected that the increase of AIDS patients due to the increase of homosexual behavior could seriously affect economic growth. In conclusion, the Christian viewpoint is that homosexuals should be assisted to quit homosexuality and led to the correct life, because homosexuality is curable and their life is unhappy.

국문 초록 (Abstract)

동성애 행위에 대한 기독교 세계관적 입장은 동성애 행위 자체에 대해서는 분명한 죄악으로 간주하고, 하나님의 창조섭리 즉, 인체구조에 어긋난 비정상적인 성행위라고 본다. 본 논문에서 연구자는 동성애 행위를 비정상적인 성행위라고 보는 것을 반대하는 여러 주장들, 동성애 성향이 유전이며 선천적이라는 주장, 동성애 성향이 자신의 의지와 관계없이 형성된다는 주장, 동성애 성향이 어린 나이에 형성되므로 책임을 물을 수 없다는 주장 등을 고찰하고 반박하였다. 동성애 행위와 에이즈 사이의 밀접한 상관관계를 나타내는 국내외 통계자료와 동성애 행위로 에이즈에 감염되는 한국 청소년들이 급증하는 자료를 제시하였다. 에이즈에 감염된 남성 동성애집단으로 말미암는 사회적 비용도 추산하였으며, 남성 동성애집단이 증가하면 에이즈 감염자의 증가를 가져와서 경제발전에 심각한 악영향을 끼치는 것으로 예상되었다. 동성애가 치유 불가능하지 않으며 동성애자의 삶이 행복하지 않으므로 기독교 세계관적 입장은 동성애자들을 긍휼히 여기며 동성애를 끊고 바른 삶을 살 수 있도록 도와주어야 한다고 보았다.
