Queer Theory, Queer Theology, Narrative ReviewAbstract
Currently, fundamentalist theologies are unable to respond to life's dilemmas in a standardized and universal way. Not because human beings apostatized from the faith and gave themselves over to sin. But because Modern Science helped human beings to better understand reality and their bodies. Therefore, fundamentalist theological aspects conflict with Modern Science, due to the concept of a single model of human being, which ends up excluding other human identities or subjecting them to the illness of adapting to this model. In this article, a Narrative Review will be addressed on the foundations and definition of Queer Theology, which seeks to provide theological responses to the acceptance of the plurality of human identity, considering that all forms of human diversity are legitimate and sacred to God.
