Due to the supposedly losing war that Christianity has fought against the decline of its values for the last one hundred years, Christians seem to have entered a sort of siege mode; they are afraid that acceptance of liberal ideas about women, homosexuals, and the transgender community are a part of the increasing moral decadence of our society. As a result, they have defensively shut their gates against such perceptions, leaving many of us out in the cold. Is this Gods will? No. Why God Doesnt Hate You is the result of transgender Roman Catholic consecrated maiden Tia Michelle Pesandos extensive theological research, and it brings to light several startling truths.

"Sacred Journeys is a totally fascinating book, raw with spiritual emotion and sexual frankness. I recommend that everyone read it." --Rev. Elder Troy Perry, Founder, Metropolitan Community Church "Paul Whiting tells his story in his own unique and engaging way, without apologies. He is a truth teller, a gifted preacher, an interpreter of the Word. Sacred Journeys is a valuable resource for every library." --Rev. Elder Nancy Wilson, Metropolitan Community Church "While gays and lesbians have gained acceptance among many Christians, the same is not true within conservative churches. Paul Whiting's writings will be of great interest to evangelicals going through experiences similar to his." --Andrew Shackleton, Evangelical Fellowship, United Kingdom

First published in 1990, The Encyclopedia of Homosexuality brings together a collection of outstanding articles that were, at the time of this book’s original publication, classic, pioneering, and recent. Together, the two volumes provide scholarship on male and female homosexuality and bisexuality, and, reaching beyond questions of physical sexuality, they examine the effects of homophilia and homophobia on literature, art, religion, science, law, philosophy, society, and history. Many of the writings were considered to be controversial, and often contradictory, at that time, and refer to issues and difficulties that still exist today. This volume contains entries from A-L.
Includes entries for maps and atlases.
