    • Abstract:
      The article discusses the practice of "inventing" queer Catholic saints, and how it is an essential aspect of queer Catholic spirituality. It mentions some Catholic saints from history who have been called queer by some people, including saint Sergius and Bacchus, saint Perpetua and Felicity, saint Joan of Arc, and saint Sebastian. It highlights that having faith and imagination is important for the act of inventing.
