"The Family: A Proclamation to the World" is a 1995 statement issued by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church)—whose adherents are known colloquially as Mormons—which defined the official position of the church on family, marriage, gender roles, and human sexuality. First announced by church president Gordon B. Hinckley, the statement has been criticized by gay rights advocacy groups. ==History== Hinckley first read the Proclamation on September 23, 1995, at the church's General Relief Society Meeting, stating that the purpose was to "warn and forewarn" the world to the danger of deviating from its standards.〔 The LDS Church has published copies of the Proclamation in many languages, distributing them worldwide, and some Mormons have framed the proclamation for display in their church buildings and homes. The Proclamation has been discussed and referenced in the church's general conferences〔 〕 as well as in many other types of church meetings throughout the world.〔 〕 For instance, the Proclamation and the associated issues addressed were discussed during the 2008 Worldwide Leadership Training meeting of the LDS Church. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Family: A Proclamation to the World」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
