  abstract: "Does God's word in the Bible really condemn homosexuals? Top scholars - such as Yale history professor John Boswell and New Testament professor L. William Countryman of Berkeley and Robin Scruggs of Union Theological Seminary - show that those who perceive Bible passages as condemning homosexuality are being misled by faulty translation and poor interpretation. Daniel A. Helminiak, Ph.D. respected theologian and Roman Catholic priest, explains in a clear fashion the fascinating new insights of these scholars. The Bible has been used to justify slavery, inquisitions, apartheid and the subjugation of women. Now read what the Bible really says about homosexuality"--Page 4 of cover.
