This is anthology brings together scholarly studies, creative writing, and images to critically discuss, question, and celebrate spirituality and religion from a queer perspective. The chapters closely analyse religious practices, scriptures, and institutions from a variety of perspectives and disciplines. They discuss religious teaching and care as spaces for queer community, showcasing the many ways in which queer identities, critiques, and lifestyles intersect with religion across geographies and histories. They also focus on the nexus between state, market, and religious institutions. The book looks at how queer people experience religion and spirituality around the world. It challenges the idea that religion and spirituality are separate from each other and shows how they affect people's lives. It also looks at how social science and humanities-oriented queer studies can be changed to include religion and spirituality.
