ABSTRACT While LGBT people are generally protected by a number of basic human rights, such as the right to privacy, freedom of expression and association, and the right not to be discriminated against, LGBT rights are repeatedly presented as contrary to freedom of religion. However, taking into account how religion has always been both condemning and embracing various forms of same-sex sexuality and transgenderism, and how an increasing number of religious people and whole denominations consider LGBT equality in accordance with their beliefs, one finds that freedom of religion relates just as much to LGBT people who live according to their own religious pro-LGBT convictions and to other people with pro-LGBT beliefs, as to those with anti-LGBT beliefs. As freedom of religion also protects the right not to believe and not to be forced to live according to other people’s religious beliefs, the general claim that LGBT rights must be limited because of the religious freedom of those with anti-LGBT beliefs also represents a direct attack on the negative freedom of religion of LGBT people. The awareness of this may in various ways affect both the legal and more general discussion on both LGBT rights and freedom of religion.

另一种方式?宗教自由如何保护 LGBT 权利

摘要 虽然 LGBT 人群普遍受到多项基本人权的保护,例如隐私权、言论和结社自由权以及不受歧视的权利,但 LGBT 权利却屡屡被表述为与宗教自由相悖。然而,考虑到宗教如何一直谴责和拥抱各种形式的同性性行为和跨性别主义,以及越来越多的宗教人士和整个教派如何根据他们的信仰考虑 LGBT 平等,人们发现宗教自由与根据自己的宗教支持 LGBT 信仰生活的 LGBT 人群以及其他支持 LGBT 信仰的人以及反 LGBT 信仰的人一样多。由于宗教自由也保护不相信和不被迫按照其他人的宗教信仰生活的权利,因此,由于反 LGBT 信仰者的宗教自由而必须限制 LGBT 权利的普遍主张也代表了直接攻击 LGBT 人群的消极宗教自由。对此的认识可能会以各种方式影响关于 LGBT 权利和宗教自由的法律和更一般的讨论。
