| Description: |
Why is Christianity so stubborn in its rejection of same-sex sexuality? The Bible does not give an unequivocal answer to this question. In an anamnesis of the history of Judaism and Christianity inspired by Queer Theory, the author interprets the condemnation of same-sex sexuality as a symptom of a fundamental disease in Christianity. |
| Synopsis: |
Why is Christianity so stubborn in its rejection of same-sex sexuality? The Bible does not give an unequivocal answer to this question. The key to the explanation is to be found rather in the apocryphal and Jewish-Hellenistic writings surrounding the New Testament. In an anamnesis of the history of Judaism and Christianity inspired by Queer Theory, the author interprets the condemnation of same-sex sexuality as a symptom of a fundamental disease in Christianity. This takes up a central position in the imagery of the system of Christian symbolism - without Sodom there would be no Gospel. |
