Many have come upon the comments about homosexuality after miracle principle 18 in the Complete and Annotated Edition of A Course in Miracles (CE) and have been turned off, thinking this is the same old prejudiced rhetoric. But what do these paragraphs really say? In this episode, Robert and Emily explore that question in detail, discussing the Course’s consistent affirmation of the holiness, equality and worth of all. In addition, they discuss the suffering caused when one’s scripture says a person is condemned by God for their sexual orientation and how the Course offers a healing of this harmful worldview.
