Theology in the Raw

CHAPTER

Critiquing Evolving Views on Sexuality

This chapter critiques the argument that biblical views on sexuality have evolved to endorse same-sex relationships, asserting no scriptural basis exists for this claim. It engages with the historical context of sexual ethics and challenges the ethnocentric perspective presented in a recent book, highlighting the growth of Christianity in non-Western regions. Ultimately, the chapter reflects on the academic responsibilities to address complex theological issues while critiquing the limits of contemporary scholarship in this field.
