An exploration of the intersection between religion and homosexuality in the U.S. and how the religious right has used its interpretation of the Bible to stigmatize the gay community.

Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant
Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
user-18-246124 The documentary centers around five families each with a gay or lesbian child. The parents and the children (adults now) participate in lengthy interviews on the impact on both sides when the child revealed their homosexuality. All of the families hold very religious backgrounds and the film gives us a closer look into what love really is. Watching this film was heart-breaking as you see families being torn apart and people doing monstrous things to young adults who have come out as gay or lesbian. It opens your eyes to how early Christians have perverted phrases of the bible, declaring homosexuality as an "abomination". Yet it was also inspiring because it finally teaches some of the parents a lesson of what unconditional love is and what it truly means.
Nick Wang I didn't realize just how many people hate Homosexuals and how they treat them. This is NOT RIGHT! They have to right to marry the one they love, the Bible's basis is to LOVE! If that person who you feel completes you and you want to spend the rest of your life with is of the same gender then GO RIGHT AHEAD AND MARRY THEM! BE HAPPY! YOLO! This movie tackles one of the most prevalent issues in todays modern society. I was extremely glad that this movie takes a look at so many different cases of LGBT people and their struggles, from those for whom it was very hard, even leading to suicide, for those who had help along the way, and for those that fought tooth and nail to have their rights and be accepted. This movie is what I hope that everybody will be able to watch and understand. This movie shows the opinions of many people for and against Homosexual relationships, but I explains with actual evidence why Homosexuality shouldn't be condemned and accepted and why people are misreading quotes from the Bible and now understanding them. This movie also explains WHY people hate homosexuals, they really cover most of the bases and I think this is a film that all should see.I learned many statistics watching this movie and I loved the animation of the reasons why homosexuality should be accepted in really simple terms so that people of all educations can understand it while still showing important facts right under out noses that some people are to lazy to see.I think the most surprising thing that I learned was that people are quoting sets laws that they themselves don't follow and are to narrow minded to think that maybe just maybe there is more to the Bible than what reads. Hypocrites are what surround us.
lordsong-918-188748 A masterful piece of gay propaganda full of lies and intolerance of Christianity. Yet another movie intended to sell you homosexuality while you think you're being told the truth.This is truly an unbelievably twisted view of reality forced on the so-called "religious right" by this film.The authors should be ashamed since its clear that they're really seeking to push the radical gay agenda -under the hypocritical guise of "tolerance".What is this film really about? It's just another step in the program. It's all written out clearly in the strategic plan invented by Madsen and Kirk in their infamous marketing of homosexuality book "After the Ball is Over". And this film is clearly following the marketing strategy written therein.This film is just part a plan to SELL homosexuality to the world by standard brainwashing, propaganda techniques, Hollywood scenarios included and nicely executed to look convincing to those ignorant of the facts.The films' real goal is to trick you into believing the lie that homosexuality is somehow normal, natural, genetic, hey "born that way" while we're at it! It isn't any of that. There is no such thing as a "gay gene" and if it were natural they could reproduce amongst themselves.Haven't you been lied to enough?This film has clear purposes : 1) to sell homosexuality (pedophilia is up next on the agenda, already being called a mere "sexual orientation" to deceive the gullible)2) to black ball the whole religious world by making them look "intolerant" -a favorite term of theirs whenever criticized- ignorant and even unchristian! 3) ultimately to convert you and your kids This movie is just another step in the gay agenda and if you swallow the multitude of lies displayed therein you are as foolish as those who think that superman is real.If the whole world became "gay" tomorrow the human race would be extinct in less than a century. Avoid this shameful insult to your intelligence.
templecleaning To twist God's words and say that there is no word for HOMOSEXUAL in Greek Hebrew or Aramaic is justifying the sinful act of homosexuality. God makes it very clear that a man with a man or a woman with a woman is a detestable sin. The NEW LIVING TRANSLATION uses modern words such as homosexual.. look up the scripture Leviticus 18:22 in the New King James version: it clearly says that a "man shall not lay with a man , nor a woman with a woman, for this is an abomination".. Just because there is no ancient word for it, does not mean God approves of it... I resent the fact that because I am a Christian, I am labeled as a homophobic. You are trying to justify immoral behavior such as homosexuality or pornography.
