Abstract
Religion plays a major part in the changes that have taken place with regard to the recognition of rights of Lesbian, Gay, Transgender, Bisexual and Intersex (LGBTI) people. In today’s world, growing activism around sexual and gender diversity meets increased hostility towards LGBTI people. This research article presents the design of a collaborative research project to explore and investigate the empirical situation of European churches towards inclusivity of LGBTI people.
Zusammenfassung
Der Aufsatz erörtert das Design einer empirischen Untersuchung, die bemisst, welches Maß an Inklusivität in europäischen Kirchen für queere Personen besteht. Hieraus wird der „Rainbow Index of Churches in Europe (RICE)“ gebildet. Den Horizont der Studie bilden sowohl Fortschritte bei der Anerkennung der Rechte queerer Menschen als auch zunehmende Anfeindungen gegen sie.
