Can the love between two people ever be an abomination? Is the Bible
an excuse to hate? Through the experiences of five very normal, very
Christian, very American families—including those of former House
Majority Leader Richard Gephardt and Episcopal Bishop Gene Robinson—we
discover how insightful people of faith handle the realization of
having a gay child. Informed by such respected voices as Bishop
Desmond Tutu, Harvard's Peter Gomes, Orthodox Rabbi Steve Greenberg
and Reverend Jimmy Creech, For the Bible Tells Me So offers healing,
clarity and understanding to anyone caught in the crosshairs of
scripture and sexual identity.
"No handwringing or bile-spewing in this entertaining film, but plenty
of reasoned examination…Gets at the historical distortions of the Good
Book as well as the ease with which holy writings have been used in
America to propagate hate." –New York Newsday
