In my tradition, many of the churches are now, or becoming, Open and Affirming. Essentially being identified as a safe space for LGBTQIA+ people. All of this is great, except for the fact that I am still not fully human in these spaces. I am still a non-human.
The problem is, LGBTQIA+ people are still seen as a theological issue, which needs to be discussed, voted on, and affirmed (or not). Even if a church is affirming, they are affirming because they have chosen allow queer people to join them after a time of deliberation.
