Featured EPISODE
Outlaws
Original Sin: Religiosity, Same Sex Desire & Institutionalized Homophobia is a multi-faith panel discussion in the Thomson Reuters Outlaws series for Pride Month.
What do Christianity, Islam, and Judaism really say about being LGBTQ+? What role has religion played in the fight for LGBTQ+ rights? How can we constructively engage with those whose religious beliefs condemn being LGBTQ+? And how can organized religion be a force for LGBTQ+ love, acceptance, and justice?
