I Am Divine. So Are You: How Buddhism Jainism Sikhism and HinduismAffirm the Dignity of Queer Identities and Sexualities
https://www.midlandbookshop.com/s/607fe93d7eafcac1f2c73ea4/60ba4c9019faf34f255f3526/9789352774852.jpg
In 2015 a historic panel discussion took place at the global Festival of Theology held in Sweden. Its objective was to examine what the sacred texts of the Abrahamic faiths - Judaism Christianity and Islam - had to say about human sexuality.
By bringing in perspectives from the Karmic faiths of Buddhism Jainism Sikhism and Hinduism which together represent the beliefs of almost a third of the world's population I Am Divine. So Are You expands this conversation between world religions and human sexuality to a truly global level.
The theology of Karmic faiths is revealed at the intersection of scripture culture rituals and lived realities. And hence they are dynamic and amenable to a multiplicity of perspectives. They lend themselves more easily to a recognition and acceptance of fluidity in human sexuality.
This is a landmark book as it recasts religion - especially Karmic faiths - as an ally and not an adversary of queer emancipation and thus significantly informs the secular and legal movements for LGBTQ rights around the world.
