本质性研究探讨了非洲裔美国男同性恋艾滋病患者的宗教发展和精神形成。在回答一个深入的采访方法，10名男子描述了他们的教会参与的经验。参与者的数据揭示了他们的宗教启蒙和参与，以及他们需要消除他们与黑人教会的联系，作为宗教认可的同性恋恐惧症，异性恋，和艾滋病恐惧症的结果。文章还探讨了一个非洲裔美国人的宗教组织从事压迫，尽管其支持解放和反对歧视的历史作用的难题。
This qualitative study explores the religious development and spiritual formation of African American gay men living with AIDS. In response to an in-depth interviewing approach, 10 men described their experiences of church participation. The participants' data reveal their religious initiation and participation as well as their need to extinguish their affiliation with the black church as a result of religiously sanctioned homophobia, heterosexism, and AIDS phobia. The article also explores the conundrum of an African American religious organization engaging in oppression despite its historic role of supporting liberation and opposing discrimination.
