{"product_id":"gender-and-christian-ethics-adrian-thatcher-9781108839488","title":"Gender and Christian Ethics","description":"In this book, Adrian Thatcher offers fresh theological arguments for expanding our understanding of gender. He begins by describing the various meanings of gender and depicts the relations between women and men as a pervasive human and global problem. Thatcher then critiques naive and harmful theological accounts of sexuality and gender as binary opposites or mistaken identities. Demonstrating that the gendered theologies of Hans Urs von Balthasar and Karl Barth, as well as the Vatican's \"war on gender\" rest on questionable binary models, he replaces these models with a human continuum that allows for sexual difference without assuming \"opposite sexes\" and normative sexualities. Grounded in core Christian doctrines, this continuum enables a full theological affirmation of LGBTIQ people. Thatcher also addresses the excesses of the male\/female binary in secular culture and outlines a hermeneutic that delivers justice and acceptance instead of sexism and discrimination.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Adrian Thatcher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1108839487\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781108839488\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/22\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.16lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.69d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2022","brand":"Adrian Thatcher","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43941746508031,"sku":"9781108839488","price":103.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_a374c4bb-0ff7-4872-a920-c75c08cf08c7.jpg?v=1681454729","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/gender-and-christian-ethics-adrian-thatcher-9781108839488","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
