We have looked at different depictions of God and Jesus...
Now some people of the LGBT group have made their own image of Jesus, claiming their own right to religion and freedom of speech.
The idea behind these pictures is explained as this: "Whenever anyone commits violence against another, Christ is crucified --
including when LGBT people are attacked or killed for loving someone of
the same sex. The crucifixion remains the most common queer Christian
theme. Many LGBT people can relate to the hurt and humiliation that
Jesus experienced on the cross. Traditional iconography such as the
Passion and the Stations of the Cross has been adapted to address queer
suffering."The article writer says these ideas are revelations in the church.
