Men, Homosexuality, and the Gods is an eye-opening look at a representative sampling of religions and their edicts concerning gay sex. This book examines the origins of historic holy directives involving homosexuality--whether forbidden, tolerated, or mandatory--and establishes a link between theology, sex paradigms, and the sensitive issue of masculinity. This intriguing text calls for a new approach to gay rights as a freedom of religion issue and shows how the modern homophile movements are in effect redefining masculinity to obliterate the stigma of being a sexually receptive man. Easy-to-read and free of technical language, this volume is for anyone who has an academic, professional, or personal interest in theology and homosexuality.
