gay rights and religious fundamentalism
Gay rights refers to the equal rights and legal protections granted to individuals who identify as homosexual or belong to the LGBTQ+ community, ensuring their right to marriage, adoption, employment, and other aspects of life without discrimination. Religious fundamentalism, on the other hand, is a conservative and literal interpretation of religious texts, where adherents strictly follow the teachings and oppose any deviation from traditional norms and values. Consequently, the intersection of gay rights and religious fundamentalism often centers around clashes between the rights and beliefs of LGBTQ+ individuals and religious doctrines advocating for opposition or exclusion based on sexual orientation.
