Development of medical knowledge and principal charges of those moral & mental outlook orientations, taking place in the European culture during last hundred years, has caused the establishment of "Sexual liberalism" of human beings that leads to changes in juridical norm & legislation. This is illustrated by the modern tendency to consider all types of sexual perversity (among them homosexualism and transsexualism) as a disease and even as a norm. The Christian religion keeps its categorically negative position to any types of sexual perversity and depravity that should be overdid and treated by fulfilling Holy secrets, keeping the fast, praying, reading the Holy Bible, etc.
