This page indexes resources about LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender) issues at sacred-texts. This page deals specifically with the subject of LGBT people in sacred texts. For an overview of the positions of various religions on this topic, including historical and current beliefs, refer to this page at the Ontario Consultants for Religious Tolerance site [external site].
References to the scriptures are being used as the backbone of much of the heated discussion about gay people in a way that has not been seen since the Scopes evolution trial. It is thus crucial to examine the actual texts, and the context in which they were written. This page, which has taken months of research to write, provides all available scriptural quotes on this subject, with links into the full texts, also available at this site. Also included are the complete text of several books on the subject, scanned specially to provide background information for this page.
The creator and founder of Internet Sacred Texts Archive, John Bruno Hare, passed away in 2010 https://sacred-texts.com/jbhobit.htm
But he did this
Approximately a year prior to his passing JBH established a structure for perpetuating ISTA and keeping it alive and free to the public. Additionally, ISTA plans to continue to add texts, products, features and services consistent with JBH's directions. While ISTA is run and maintained in accordance with the structure that JBH chose, its ultimate fate resides in the hands of its readers, who access it daily. By supporting ISTA itself (or by contributing to the mission of any of the deserving Public Domain projects listed here) you can be part of John Bruno Hare's vision for preserving humanity's Public Domain spiritual works as civilization enters the Digital Age.
Which is more than I've ever accomplished.
