For The Bible Tells Me So

October 21st, 2008

A Sundance film festival documentary I went to go see last week.
The documentary follows 5 very normal, very American and very Christian Families and their journey with a homosexual son or daughter. It deals with their struggles, the impact of parents reactions on their child. A very moving experience to see if they are able to overcome their prejudices and come together as a family.

It also draws upon roughly 5 bible verses that people in the past has used to condemn homosexuality, however experts urge people to understand the historical and scholarly context in order to see these verses in a new light.

The only animation in the movie - a comedic take to explain if it is a choice, shown right after a very serious segment:
