Homosexuality and Unitarian Universalism : ウィキペディア英語版 | Unitarian Universalism and LGBT topics
Unitarian Universalism and the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) have a long-standing tradition of welcoming LGBT people. ==History== The first ordained minister of a major religious group in the U.S. or Canada to come out as gay was UU Minister James Stoll in 1969.〔("My Greatly Human Hometown Minister--James Lewis Stoll, 1936-1994" )〕 There have been several UUA resolutions supporting people regardless of sexual orientation since 1970. Unitarian Universalism was the first denomination to accept openly transgender people as full members with eligibility to become clergy; in 1988 the first openly transgender person was ordained by the Unitarian Universalist Association.〔http://www.uua.org/lgbtq/history/185789.shtml〕〔(Office of Bisexual, Gay, Lesbian, and Transgender Concerns )〕 The UUA has had a popular program for a church wanting to become a "Welcoming Congregation" for LGBT people since 1989. UUA has officially supported UUA clergy performing Services of Union between same-sex couples since 1984,〔("Unitarians Endorse Homosexual Marriages" ), UPI, ''New York Times'', 29 June 1984, retrieved on 21 June 2007.〕 and has supported same-sex marriage since 1996.〔(UUA: Bisexual, Gay, Lesbian, and Transgender Community )〕 In 2002, Sean Dennison became the first openly transgender person in the Unitarian Universalist ministry called to serve a congregation; he was called to South Valley UU Society, Salt Lake City, UT.〔 In 2004 UU Minister Rev. Debra Haffner of The Religious Institute on Sexual Morality, Justice, and Healing published An Open Letter on Religious Leaders on Marriage Equality to affirm same-sex marriage from a multi-faith perspective.〔(Religious Leaders Must Support Justice for All | Reproductive Health | RHRealityCheck.org )〕
