Paul is the one who lambasts all same-sex desires (they are God's punishment on idolaters), tells slaves to obey their masters and insists that women be subordinate because the Fall was all Eve's fault. There are some wonderful passages in Paul's letters, of course. "Faith, hope and charity" is as popular as ever at weddings; "Wives, obey your husbands" is not. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
