If you get the Sundance Channel, they are showing the thought provoking and moving documentary For The Bible Tells Me So tonight (June 2) at 9pm EST. They will show it again Jun 18 10am EST. I saw it a few months ago, and I highly recommend it. Here's the description from Sundance Channel's website:
Appeared at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival
Bravely tackling one of the most politically and religiously divisive issues in contemporary America, documentary filmmaker Daniel Karslake presents a consideration of the intersection of scripture and homosexuality. Profiled are five devout families who each have dealt with the disclosure that a relative was gay or lesbian. Discussion is given to the importance of mutual understanding and unconditional parental love, while often-cited Biblical passages come in for scholarly interpretation and reconsideration. "Admirable and moving." - Salon.
