Que(e)rying religion : a critical anthology
Is it possible to be religious and to be gay, lesbian, or queer? Until recently, many persons would have said no. But over the past decade or so, a vast literature has emerged of personal narrative, apologetic, and polemic, asserting both the existence and acceptability of such dual identities. The book includes but moves beyond tradition-based experiential writing by turning to the academic study of religion. It compares or focuses on different traditions: forms of Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism and Native American spiritualities. It also covers various areas and time periods. It questions the terms religion and religious themselves. Read together, it provides access to a broad selection of work of religious and lesbian/gay/queer studies
