About the Lecture
“Does Allah support sexual diversity?”
Traditionally, homosexuality and Islam cannot be reconciled. However, Iranian philosopher and theologian Mehrdad Alipour does see room for homo- and bisexuality in islam. Drawing on islamic sources he reaches the controversial conclusion that God actually does support sexual diversity.
On invitation of student organisation GSp en COC Groningen & Drenthe Mehrdad Alipour will be in Groningen on Monday March 14, 20:00h (at the Mennonite church (‘doopsgezinde kerk’) to learn about his research and to join the conversation about sexual diversity in Islam.
