Produktbeschreibung
In this book, layperson Kevin Mahoney argues that Christian churches should embrace same sex marriage. Although many conservative Christians reject homosexuality due to the laws of Moses, Kevin points out that very few (if any) of these three-thousand-year-old Mosaic laws are upheld today, and that homophobia is contrary to the spirit and manner of our Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus himself never condemned homosexuality; however, He did illuminate the hypocrisy of the Pharisees. Kevin argues that the Pharisees are very much alive today in the form of conservative Christians that proscribe homosexuality. Since most of the laws against homosexuality around the world have a religious basis, then this book's demolition of the conservative Christian argument against homosexuality will also be instructive for non-religious LGBT rights campaigners. Using the Parable of the Prodigal Son as an analogy, Kevin outlines how liberal and conservative Christians can finally agree on the divisive issue of same sex marriage.
Autorenporträt
Born in 1948, in the East End of London Kevin shunned school but due to an inexplicable ability in maths he got a job in IT and stayed in that career until retirement. In between, he backpacked across Africa and Asia. He then raised, thanks to his wife, a wonderful family, which is now enriched with in-laws and four grandchildren. Then he got old, well, at least mathematically! It was the future of his kids and grandkids that caused him to write his book "Burn Down The Children's Playground".
