Master's Thesis from the year 2009 in the subject Theology - Comparative Religion Studies, grade: -, Gonzaga University, language: English, abstract: This Thesis is focuses on the Catholic and Islamic teachings on the morality of homosexuality. Each religions will show its view on homosexuality based on the holy books. Being from a conservative Arab country, the title of this thesis will undoubtedly raise many eyebrows. As an Arab and Muslim woman embarking on a difficult and bumpy journey, I have decided, despite the controversial nature of this topic, to choose it for different reasons. The secular or conservative condemns homosexuality in many Islamic countries. Islamic secular countries tend to tolerate homosexuality more than the conservative ones, where the death penalty is often handed down to homosexuals. In non-Islamic countries, the majority of people do not condone homosexuality. Nowadays, homosexuality has become a buzzword. Despite its condemnation, it continues to make inroads. From its clandestine status, due to harsh treatments, to a solemn recognition of its rights, gays and lesbians have achieved substantial gains for their rights, landmark legal rulings have been pronounced in its favor. Some countries have legalized the same-sex marriage. On the other hand, Islam continues to emerge as a staunch critic of homosexuality. This fight is relayed by the Roman Catholic, which condemns homosexuality but calls for more compassion for homosexuals. What are the views of Islam and the Roman Catholic on homosexuality? This thesis includes five main chapters: Chapter 1: Deals with the story of the Prophet Lot and his people. Chapter 2: Deals with homosexuality through history. Chapter 3: Deals with the major positive in favor of homosexuality. Chapter 4: Covers the Roman Catholic teachings on homosexuality. Chapter5: Puts in exergue the Islamic teachings on homosexuality
