Affirmation - Gay & Lesbian Mormons - In this rigid faith, homosexuality alone is grounds for excommunication (as was publicly supporting the Equal Rights Amendment for women in the late 1970s) -- although heterosexual polygamy is conceptually allowed. The basic Mormon religious legend is interesting (and uniquely American): the lost tribe of Israel -- a bunch of white settlers -- landed in North America centuries ago, battled the dark-skinned heathen, set forth a code of conduct and were eventually wiped out ... but not before leaving behind some golden books written in a strange language which Joseph Smith found in Upstate New York in the 1800s with the help of an angel who also helped translate the books before the books were lost again forever. Any questions? That said, this site for Gay Mormons is very useful for those dealing with the homophobic intolerance of the Elders. Lots of links. Quite interesting. Well designed.

Gateway Monastery - This small community of gay monks is guided by Buddhist as well as Catholic principles; by compassion and love within a community of gay men who have the desire to devote themselves to meditation, prayer, and community service in helping others; to give support and counseling to other gay men in crisis or in denial or in despair; and to help the general community in developing compassion and charity within their own lives.

White Crane: A Journal of Gay Men's Spirituality - White Crane Journal has been in publication for 8 years. It is non-Church-linked, publishing articles on topics of gay men's spirituality from a variety of Christian and non-Christian, theist and non-theist, traditions. White Crane was started by Bob Barzan, a former Jesuit priest living in San Francisco. A year ago publication was taken over by Toby Johnson, a gay novelist and student of the renowned religions scholar and mythologist Joseph Campbell. The Journal is published quarterly to a relatively small subscription list. Copies are available in select gay and lesbian bookstores around the country. The web page siteinfo/includes excerpts from past issues. White Crane is published at Peregrine's Perspective, a B&B-style country retreat in the Rocky Mountains outside Denver.

The attractive-looking site features extensive articles on a wide variety of topics. Follow the menu options under the headings "UCC Headlines" and "Justice & Peace" for the gay-related links. Extensive attacks on the "Religious Right," too.
