| الملخص: | From the mid-twentieth century controversies within Christianity addressed matters of sexual diversity - same-sex marriage, sexual rights, and the place of sexual minorities within the churches. Several decades further on this volume reflects on principal developments, exposing from a sociological perspective that these issues are largely the product of rationality, individuality, community decline, state initiatives and other features of a profoundly secular age where Christianity has lost its cultural grip. This volume considers contestations through scrutinising changing theologies and expressions of liberal-conservative Christian divides by examining LGBT+ politics and churches and campaigning groups in their responses to profound social change. |
