- In her documentary "Fish Out of Water," Ky Dickens interviewed 170 members of the LGTBQ community and 14 experts on theology and psychology to develop the general idea that the bible never denounces homosexuality and that Christianity should actually embrace the sexual diversity instead of condemning it. The documentary focuses in on 7 biblical verses that are commonly used by Christians to show how homosexuality is an abomination. A variety of denominations were interviewed, including Westboro Baptist, United Methodist, Episcopalian, Jewish, Lutheran, and United Church Of Christ. Dickens presents a compelling argument in regards to accepting homosexuality in the church.—Josh Witte
