For The Bible Tells Me So

Buy This Item For The Bible Tells Me So by First Run Features  Available from Amazon  $19.99  on 8-5-2008     Winner of the Audience Award for Best Documentary at the Seattle Interntional Film Festival, Dan Karslake's provocative, entertaining documentary brilliantly reconciles homosexuality and Biblical scripture, and in the process reveals that Church-sanctioned anti-gay bias is based solely upon a significant (and often malicious) misinterpretation of the Bible. As the film notes, most Christians live their lives today without feeling obliged to kil anyone who works on the Sabbath or eats shrimp. Through the experience of five very normal, very Christian , very American families - including those of former House Majority Leader Richard Gephardt and Episcopalian Bishop Gene Robinson - we discover how insightful people of faith handle the realization of having a gay child. With commentary by such respected voices as Bishop Desmond Tutu, Harvard's Peter Gomes, Orthodox Rabbi Steve Greenberg and Reverend Jimmy Creech, For The Bible Tells Me So offers healing, clarity and understanding to anyone caught in the crosshairs of scripture and sexual identity. Reader Reviews Every person alive should see this film. Don't pass it by if you're not Christian. Christianity has become synonymous with bigotry, homophobia, sexism and hate and this film shows a more orthodox Christian movement that can not and does not support any of those things at all. Indeed, true Christianity can't be used to promulgate intollerence, hate or fear based on anything - it's suposed to be about deliverance from those things and you can see that in this movie. Everyone should have the chance to see this movie.
