Description
The Queer God explores a new theology from the margins of sexual deviance and economic exclusion. It challenges traditional Christian thought by introducing the concept of a Queer God who overcomes sexual and colonial prejudices. This book seeks to liberate God from the closet of traditional Christian orthodoxy, embracing God's part in the lives of gays, lesbians, and the poor. By merging Liberation Theology and Queer Theory, it exposes the sexual roots that underlie all theology, taking the search for God to new depths of social and sexual exclusion. The result is a concept of holiness that overcomes these prejudices, showing how Queer Theology is ultimately the search for God's own deliverance.
