Summary: New View On Homosexuals (Press, 29 October 1974)
On 29 October 1974, the Associated Churches of Christ conference held in Nelson made a significant resolution regarding homosexuality. This new decision reversed a stance taken by the conference in 1968, which advocated for the prompt changing of laws making homosexual acts in private between consenting males illegal. The recent conference expressed a shift in focus, emphasising the need to explore ways to assist homosexuals rather than solely pushing for legal reform. Members were encouraged to engage in a deeper study of the issues surrounding homosexuality, including the implications of moral judgement, the need for medical research, and potential law reforms.
