Abstract
How should psychologists demonstrate respect for religion as an
aspect of diversity when that aspect of diversity seems
inconsistent with another form of diversity? This is a striking
challenge when considering conservative expressions of religion
in relation to a person's experience of same-sex attraction and
behavior. This article (a) asserts that conservative religion is a
legitimate, though often overlooked, expression of diversity; (b)

3. identifies ways in which gay-integrative theorists and
conservative religious persons fail to appreciate each other's
perspective; and (c) presents a continuum of service delivery
options to expand clinical services to persons who experience
same-sex attraction. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA,
