Queering the Bible By Mrs Vera West

     Universities, at least in the US, and probably here in Ozzy, are running courses about queering the Bible, showing that the Bible is, I suppose, a gay document:

“We will examine biblical passages that are central to prohibitions on homosexuality and the larger discourses of heteronormativity (constructed around gender, sexuality, class, national identity, state formations, kinship, children, etc.) in which homophobic readings of the Bible emerge. We will also look at the ways in which these discourses and the identities they shore up can be “queered,” as well as at biblical texts that can be read as queer friendly. This process of queering will allow and require us to approach the biblical text in new ways. Pomona student Daniel Silverman told Campus Reform the course meets the high demand at the school for classes that contain topics representative of left-wing ideology.

“The overall socio-political environment among both students and faculty at Pomona lies deep into the left of the political spectrum,” Silverman said. “As I see it, ‘Queer Theory and the Bible,’ and other similar classes related to gender theory, exist because there is a high demand among students to enroll in those courses.” Silverman added a thought that if the course were to be “co-taught with a conservative professor,” he thinks “fewer Pomona students would enroll in it than otherwise, as students on campus, in general, don’t seem interested in learning from conservative professors.”

     What I am not sure about, is why bother with the Bible at all, and just go straight to what they call queer theory? Why not have a queer theory of creation instead, a queer ecology of creation, and cut out the middle man/person:

     Anyway, I am glad I am as old as I am, and look forward to dying.
