Show Notes

LGBTQ+ religious figures have been around for centuries, and their impact on their faith has been immense. From saints to queer theologians, these individuals have challenged the status quo and pushed for greater acceptance of LGBTQ+ individuals within religious circles.

In 2017, a Vatican appointee made headlines for noting that some ancient Catholic saints were "probably gay." This sparked a debate among religious scholars, as it challenged the traditional view of sexuality and gender roles in Catholicism. The controversy was further exacerbated by the discovery of nude women pics among some of these saints' relics. This discovery raised questions about the Church's stance on gender roles, and how it may have changed over time.

Today we will explore some of the most influential LGBTQ+ religious figures throughout history who made a lasting impact on their faith. We will look at how they fought for equality and acceptance, as well as how their actions changed the way people viewed religion. We will also discuss some of the challenges they faced in a society that was not always accepting of them.
