Book Reviews of Jonathan Loved David: Homosexuality in Biblical Times

Book Review: WHy do Christians keep spewing such hatred?
Summary: 4 Stars

W. Peters "B&W Rules" has very little compassion, and has evidently from their review not read the book. Their review is a searing attack on people who have the courage to think about issues, rather than blindly condemn them.

This book is an attempt to sympathetically review the evidence in the Bible for mentions and portrayals of homosexuality - whether you agree or disagree, you cannot deny that the author has tried to really think about the topic, rather than just twist teh facts to fit their own bigoted views.

I would suggest that, if you take an interest in studying the Bible and sexuality, you buy this book. If you choose to take a line and stick to it and rebuff all rational discussion with "Jesus loves you", as does W. Peters "B&W Rules" (who has done the same in all their previous reviews, by the way), don't read it. Go picket the Da Vinci Code, but don't bother people who can learn nothing from you.
