天國孽子？－論基督宗教反同聖經根據與挺同的同志神學

基督教的恐同文化和反同立場可謂惡名昭彰，但不是所有基督徒都恐同反同，基督教會內開明與進步的基督徒在回應社會的同運與教會的反同立場，亦發展出獨特的同志神學。本文旨在簡單論述反同基督徒以聖經反同的論述，與酷兒同志神學家對有關經文的回應，並簡單勾勒西方基督教酷兒神學的發展歷史。本文亦論證所有的思想皆具歷史性，包括聖經與我們對聖經的理解，均是社會文化建構的結果，難以避免當時社會文化處境與歷史性的偏見，職是之故，必須進行批判性的閱讀與檢視。

Even though Christianity is notoriously anti-gay and homophobic, not every Christians homophobe and anti-gay. Liberal and progressive Christians have developed queer theology as a response to gay movement in our society at large and anti-gay movement in the church in particular. This paper seeks to articulate briefly the biblical arguments of anti-gay Christians, and the response of queer theologians, as well as the historical development of queer theology in the West. This paper argues forcefully that all ideas are historical, Christian Bible and our understanding of the Bible being no exception, they are social constructions built from the cultural artifacts and materials of human life, therefore inevitably perpetuate some historical biases that need to be scrutinized critically.
