TY - JOUR PY - 2004// TI - The Catholic Church, the American military, and homosexual reorientation therapy JO - Christian bioethics A1 - Lutz, David SP - 189 EP - 226 VL - 10 IS - 2-3 N2 - Homosexual activist groups have targeted the Catholic Church and the American military as institutions especially in need of transformation. Associations of healthcare professionals are also under assault from homosexual activists. It is, nevertheless, appropriate for the Church and the military to defend themselves against this assault, to affirm that homosexuality is incompatible with Christian ethics and military service, and to help homosexuals free themselves from the vice of homosexuality. Arguments that homosexual reorientation therapy is unethical are unsound. Such therapy is consistent with the Christian virtue of charity.
