Holy Homosexuals
The Truth About Being Gay Or Lesbian And Christian
Michael S. Piazza
‘I am not such an idealist that I believe we can live with pride without paying a price. I, too, have lost jobs and friends and even my church. I have had my tires slashed, the paint scratched off my car, my office ransacked, my churches bombed. Hardly a week goes by without some death-threat or hate-filled letter. There is one thing I have learned the hard way, however; the price tag for living with pride as an openly gay or lesbian person isn’t nearly as high as the price of living with shame.’
–from Holy Homosexuals, the 2nd edition
What does it mean for lesbian and gay people that Jesus was tempted ‘like we are in every way?’ Fundamentalists have created God in their image. What if God has qualities other than being ‘right wing, upper middle class, white, and male?’ In the Revised Edition, Rev. Piazza challenges us to look at God from a different angle.
