A German bible museum has created a controversial exhibit that displays Jesus Christ as being transgender according to a report from TheBlaze. “For some years now, society has been opening up to non-binary gender concepts.
We sometimes have heated debates about gender-equitable language. It seems to be one of the burning issues of our time. Take a look at the diversity of gender identities from biblical and modern times and find a divine answer that fits all questions: You are good as you are,” the museum’s website says.
The Bibelhaus Frankfurt displays three artifacts from its transgender Jesus exhibit on their website including a 3,000-year-old clay statue of the Sumerian goddess Asherah, an image of the “new Adam,” and a statue of Austrian drag queen singer Conchita Wurst, real name Thomas Neuwirth, according to Fox News.
The exhibit, “G*tt w/m/d,” encourages visitors to “take a look at the diversity of gender identities from biblical and modern times and find a divine answer that fits all questions: You are good as you are.”
The Bibelhaus website presents three of the exhibits: a statue of the goddess Asherah, an image of “The New Adam” with an LGBTQ pride rainbow flag, and a statue of Conchita Wurst, the drag queen persona of Austrian singer Thomas Neuwirth.
“Even in biblical times 3000 years ago it was clear: The fertility of the soil, animals, and people depends on the gods,” the exhibit’s blurb on Asherah reads. “A deity can do both – beget and give birth.” The museum notes that Asherah “in Judea and Samaria still belonged firmly in many households.”
