SERRA, Cris. “Love conquers hate”: disputes between god and gender narratives in Brazilian Christianity. Soc. relig. [online]. 2022, vol.32, n.59, pp.4-4.  Epub 08-Jul-2022. ISSN 0326-9795.

This paper deals with the images of God, Christian traditions, and definitions of Christianity and Christian church found in both the thinking and the political-theological praxis of LGBTQI+ Christian and Christian feminist movements in Brazil. Those stand in contrast to the images of God and political theologies unveiled by the Christian elements present in the anti-gender, anti-rights, and anti-pluralist moral crusade that has been growing in Brazil (as in Latin America as a whole) since at least the mid-2010s. The empirical material analyzed consists of public discourse expressed in interviews and texts published in the press and on social networks and online videos. The Brazilian Christian feminists and LGBTQI+ Christians movements seem to evoke images of God that underlie and legitimize the struggle for social justice within a framework of equality and rights guarantee.
