Mizoram Church to Take Steps Against Homosexual Members

Aizawl, Mar 13 : The Baptist Church of Mizoram (BCM) today decided to take strong punitive action, including ex-communication, against homosexual members.

The assembly of the BCM, the highest decision-making body of the powerful church in the state next only to the Presbyterian Church, resolved that homosexuality should be outlawed, church sources said.

The BCM also dubbed birth control and abortion as wrong and said medical termination of pregnancy should be allowed only when life of a woman was in danger.
