In the recent discussion surrounding LGBTQ+ inclusion in religious texts, members of r/GayChristians talked about the origins and interpretations of verses often used to condemn same-sex relationships. Addressing the question of mistranslation, one user highlighted the evolution of language over time, illustrating how changes in word usage can skew interpretations. Drawing parallels to modern contexts, they emphasized the importance of considering historical context when interpreting biblical passages. Another user referenced the catechism, which acknowledges the complexities of homosexuality while advocating for compassion and respect towards LGBTQ+ individuals. This stance contrasts with traditional interpretations of scripture, which have historically been used to denounce same-sex relationships. These discussions raise fundamental questions about the inclusion of certain texts in religious scripture and literature. At Queer God Squad, we acknowledge the harm caused by misinterpretations and misuse of scripture and the perpetuation of discriminatory beliefs. In a world where LGBTQ+ individuals often face exclusion and condemnation in religious spaces, discussions on Reddit groups like r/GayChristians challenge these narratives and provide a platform for inclusive dialogue and understanding. The Bible was written by human-beings. And re-written. And edited. And translated, and most early translations involved more editing. Engaging with diverse perspectives creates a community where all are embraced for who they are, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.
