Christianity has traditionally regarded male homosexual behavior to be an immoral practice, or sinful, and most major Christian denominations (containing the majority of Christians worldwide) continue to hold this view. These include the Roman Catholic Church,[30] the Eastern Orthodox churches,[31]the Church of Latter-Day Saints, the Brethren in Christ,[32] and the Christian & Missionary Alliance. Some denominations have subgroups that also hold this belief, including some conservative synods of the Lutheran Church (e.g., Lutheran Church–Missouri Synod[33][34][35]), most Evangelical Protestant churches, and the Southern Baptist Convention.
