Introduction
Dallas exists in the belly of the beast of Christian homophobia. So for the Dallas Gay Liberation newsletter much of the reporting is the reporting about religious homophobia. As part of this, in documenting a local group’s, church’s, or institution’s homophobia, includes documenting the religious group or denomination of which they are a member.
In other investigations, such as local religious groups running conversion “therapy” groups, they homophobes have a scope that is national or regional. They may be in your area.
So a lot of the reporting for the Dallas Gay Liberation newsletter is useful to people in the United States, and often useful globally.
Further actions and programs to counter religious homophobes undertaken in Dallas can serve as instruction in how religious homophobia can be opposed anywhere. The tactics of local homophobic groups is reported on and likely they will be the same tactics used by homophobic religious groups everywhere.
In addition to the Dallas Gay Liberation newsletter there is the Gay Atheist Action newsletter. The Gay Atheist Action newsletter is to mobilize Gay atheists to fight religious homophobia, discuss how religious homophobia might be fought, and to provide resources to fight religious homophobia. About one-quarter of the Gay community is atheist. Currently they aren’t doing anything effective.
There isn’t any secular organized homophobic group in the United States.
Nearly all, if not all, of the organized homophobic efforts in the United States and the world is religious.
Further, as part of a comprehensive program I also have the newsletter, Gay Temple. Some people will be religious and I think that they need to have a choice besides atheism and Christianity. About one-quarter of the Gay community is what they call spiritual, but not of any denomination. I think that it would be good to have them organized and an alternative for the Gay community to choose from.
The non-Christian, non-Abrahamic religions know that the Christians seek to wipe them off the face of the earth and have used in the past violence to do so, even in the late 20th century. They are potential allies against homophobic Christianity. The type of Christians who are homophobic, are the type who are very hostile to other religions. Though my reporting on Christian arson attacks on Korean Buddhist temples is mostly in the Gay Atheist Action and The Gay Agenda.
In having both a Gay Atheist Action newsletter and a Gay Temple newsletter, it should be apparent that I don’t have sectarian goals, I am not pushing religious or philosophical agenda.
I am pushing a Gay centric agenda of protecting the Gay community and defeating our enemies.
As for my religious beliefs, I am agnostic. There might be a god or gods, human understanding is limited and the universe is vast and complext, however, I don’t see any evidence that convinces me there are any gods.
Why this directory?
There doesn’t need to be duplicate posts in The Gay Agenda, Dallas Gay Liberation and Gay Atheist Action newsletters.
Since religious homophobia is central to the situation Gays find themselves in Dallas, doing the posts on religious homophobia should be and will be done in the Dallas Gay Liberation newsletter.
General discussions how to bring down homophobic Christianity can be discussed in Gay Atheist Action.
The Gay Agenda newsletter can provide links to posts in these newsletters.
Resources
Dallas Gay Liberation newsletter resources.
The following is a directory of homophobic religious groups.
At Dallas Gay Liberation you can see projects that you could do.
For example this project has made it clear how intensive religious homophobia is in Dallas. In each map, there is just one out of 7 to 10 churches which isn’t homophobic. You might have thought the split over the issue of Gays in the Christian churches was 50:50 or 70:30, but when you map it out it is like 90:10.
The Christian religion in Dallas is fairly solidly homophobic.
The reporting in the newsletter is mostly about religious groups, or conservative groups that are groups run by religious homophobes, campaigns against Gays. In reading the newsletter you also realize that those in Dallas who cosplay being social justic advocaes, really don’t care about homophobia and give a free pass to religious homophobia.
Gay Atheist Action
The newsletter has posts providing tactics and resources to oppose homophobic religious groups.
It is about developing a tool set to take apart homophobic Christianity. Also, it shows how current atheist efforts are going to fail.
You can download this book for free.
Gay Temple
In this newsletter are accounts of my trips to East Asia and visiting the temples as a Gay person. I visited the Temple of Tu’er, the Taoist Gay God, in New Taipei City, Taiwan.
When in Thailand, I did some Gay activities at a couple temples.
One of the projects is to show how in Thailand the Gays and the LGBT have rights and the nation is behind them, to contrast with Dallas. It is a comparison which shows how we have really nothing and we live in a cesspool of homophobia. Thailand is 1% Christian. A similar comparison is made with Taiwan.
I am still processing the 8,000 photos from Thailand and 11,000 photos from Taiwan to illustrate how life might be without Christian homophobia.
