SERGI AND BACCH: THE GAY SOLDIERS WHO WERE MA SATS BY THE CHURCH
“Tortured, Bacch died but appeared to Serge a visn prison. Radiant, Bacch told Serge they were 'bound together' forever and would be rned, and that 'your crown of jtice is me, my crown of jtice is you.'” (Crowng was a part of oppose-genr ceremoni of the time.) - Gay Christian thor Chris Glaser scrib the visn his book As My Own Soul: The Blsg of Same-Genr Marriage * bacchus gay *

Christiany’s history of discrimatn agast the gay muny is wily known, and the irratnal aversn on the part of Christians towards same-sex relatnships and marriage is unfortunate, to say the least. They were origally scribed as erastai, meang lovers, ditg they were engaged an erotic homosexual relatnship. What is clear, however, is that the two sats were fact venerated for centuri startg the 5th century, and their close relatnship has spired many gay Christians, who’ve now taken them as the patron figur of homosexualy Christian non.
Before the 19th-century tegory of sexual orientatn labelled “homosexualy” was vented there wasn’t a way to tegorize those we’d today expect were, or we’d nsir, lbian, gay, transgenr, or queer. But ’s also voked negative rpons to the reexamg of historil documents whout morn homophobic reactns, rpons that expend a lot of effort tryg to prove that those exampl weren’t really lovers but “iends, brothers, sisters” who exprsed their love more timately than siblgs and iends would today’s apparently more homophobic cultur.

But through all, Sergi and Bacch remaed as ins of an timate same-sex relatnship that homophobia only tried to erase this past quarter century.
Only the last s wh morn homophobia has anyone tried to argue that they weren’t as timate as the documents we have say they likely were, though most of the cricism of Boswell’s work is meant to reject his suggtns that there were same-sex unn ceremoni for romantic upl the pre-morn church. Homophobia?

A gay cupbearer on Mount Olymp? While tolerance is often prented as a sign of civilizatn's advancement, a readg of Greek mythology reveals greater acceptance of homosexualy ancient Athens than n be boasted wh today's world religns.
The LGBT Greek gods and migods prove gay culture is no morn ventn. While Homer never explicly stat a gay relatnship between Achill and sikick Patrocl, many scholars read a romantic nnectn between the two, as only Patrocl ever drew out a passnate si to the famoly arrogant warrr.

Like so many queer Catholics, never occurred to me that there uld even exist gay or lbian Catholics until I heard of SS Sergi and Bacch. That began for me a ntug exploratn of the other LGBT sats, of the rt of gay history the church, of more general gay and lbian theology – and this blog.
By further serendipy, I disvered this week that today, the feast day of Sergi and Bacch, is also the birthday of – Dan Savage, well known for his work to bat homophobic teen bullyg.

ALPHOPOIIS: THE MYTH OF THE “GAY” BYZANTE MARRIAGE RE
A trend has veloped over the past two or three s the field of gay Christian apologetics—takg s cue om the late Dr. John Boswell of Yale Universy [see Boswell’s semal Christiany, Social Tolerance, and Homosexualy: Gay People Wtern Europe om the Begng of the Christian Era to the Fourteenth Century and Same-Sex Unns Premorn Europe]—which poss the early 4th-century soldier martyrs, Sergi and Bacch, as the archetypal gay Christian uple. Long, “Reclaimg the Herage of Sats Serge and Bacch: Towards a Quixotic Gay-Affirmative, Pro-Animal, Vegetarian Christiany, ” Theology & Sexualy 17.
1 (2011): 101-131], vot all of one page of a 31-page treatise to the sated “homosexual lovers” and their “homoerotic bondg” [Ibid., 103-104], and mov wh astonishg ease om an acunt of their martyrdom to a discsn of AIDS, barebackg, S&M, exchange of bodily fluids, animal rights, vegetarianism, and a Try that mak love wh Itself. At the same time, I do not wish to foreclose the possibily of a more nuanced ntemplatn of the bond of timacy ung Sergi and Bacch—whatever s precise nature, however exprsed between themselv, and whatever ways nceived the mds of the fahful om one era to another—than might satisfy most partisans of both the “pro-gay” and “anti-gay” mps ntemporary Christian sexual polemics. Eher ignorg or unaware of the inographic nventn that placg a cross the hand of a figure draws the primary attentn of the viewer to the sat’s ath by martyrdom, and that the dive prence a scene is monly nveyed a manner siar to that of Christ this in—not to mentn the more elemental qutn of why Christ would serve as a mere “bt man, ” rather than as the “officiant”—Boswell stands apart om actual inologists choosg to see here a symbolic pictn of a gay weddg ceremony.
