1)  What is your initial reaction to the film, "For the Bible tells me so?" (Note: link to film can be found in Week 2 Module 2.) When watching the film, were there any triggers for you? 

2) How does the film suggest words/phrases from the Christian bible have been used as justification for the marginalization of LGBTQ+ individuals? Identify two (2) specific examples.

3) Many clients have experienced what is termed "religious abuse" - where religion or belief systems have been used to justify violence, victimization and oppression of the client. For example, some clients may have experienced being sent away from their families to be "cured of their gayness" (conversion or reparative "therapy").
