I think I'll find both these books interesting, not because I need anti-gay verses in the Bible to be explained away (I don't, since I don't believe the Bible is the literal word of God but rather human interpretation) but because seeing how to view the Bible through a gay hermeneutic (a term often used in theological discussions that I learned from Lisa Wolfe; it means roughly lens or perspective) isn't something I've done much.
(More about what I think about this book is in this blog entry.) | |
