“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. Starting at 20:00h you are welcome at Oude Boteringestraat 33 to learn about his research and to join the conversation about sexual diversity in Islam.

The lecture and discussion will be in English.
