Review Quotes: "Through convincing analyses of unique survey data, Royal G. Cravens III challenges popular wisdom about LGBT people, religion, and politics. Not only do most LGBT people in the United States identify as religious, but also many of them report positive experiences within their religious groups. Furthermore, LGBT people who are active in supportive faith communities are more likely to engage in pro-LGBT political activism than those who are not. Yes Gawd! is the most comprehensive analysis of religion, politics, and LGBT identity that I have ever come across. Any scholar interested in these topics should buy this book."--Jonathan S. Coley, Associate Professor of Sociology at Oklahoma State University, and author of Gay on God's Campus: Mobilizing for LGBT Equality at Christian Colleges and Universities
