On this episode we explore the complex relationship between religion and the LGBTQ+ community. My guest Jon, a former Christian youth pastor who is now agnostic, shares his personal journey and experiences grappling with his own beliefs and the teachings of his religious institution. Together, we discuss the challenges that many LGBTQ+ individuals face when dealing with religious institutions and anti-LGBTQ+ beliefs, as well as the hope for greater understanding and acceptance between these two communities. We delve into topics such as the role of religion in shaping attitudes towards gender and sexuality, the impact of anti-LGBTQ+ teachings on religious communities and individuals, and the potential for positive change in the relationship between religion and the LGBTQ+ community.
