NOT JUST IN THE NAME OF GOD: RELIGIOUS DISCOURSES ON HOMOSEXUALITY

Abstract

Homosexuality has been the agenda of several religious discourses in recent years, especially Christians, crossing beyond religious arenas and penetrating political and law field. This article aims, through the analysis of videos of individuals in positions of spokesmen of religions Catholic and Evangelical pentecostal and neo-pentecostal, to analyse and discuss the concepts of homosexuality made by Christians, using Foucault Discourse Analysis as a methodological framework. A diffuse arsenal of discourses about homosexuality was verified, covering "scientific" and religious knowledge, among others.

Keywords:
