1946: The Movie
Location
Hosted by
Pride at St Johns About
feature documentary that follows the story of
tireless researchers, Kathy Baldock and Ed
Oxford, who trace the origins of the anti-gay
movement among Christians to a grave
mistranslation of the Bible in 1946. It chronicles
the discovery of never-before-seen archives at
Yale University which unveil astonishing new
revelations, and casts significant doubt on any
biblical basis for LGBTQIA+ prejudice. Featuring
commentary from prominent scholars as well as
opposing pastors, including the personal stories
of the film’s creators, 1946 is at once challenging,
enlightening, and inspiring.
While other documentaries have been successful
in their attempt to treat the symptom of
homophobia in the church, 1946 is a seminal work
which begins to diagnose and treat the disease -
Biblical Literalism.
