Exploring one of the most controversial topics in contemporary
theology, this scholarly volume reveals what the world's great
faiths—East and West—preach about sexuality, with a special
emphasis on American religion. What do the world's most important
religious texts have to say about one of humanity's favorite
activities? Editors David W. Machacek and Melissa M. Wilcox have
brought together top scholars in the field of religious studies to
ask and answer these critical questions. Carefully researched,
elegantly written, and respectfully presented, Sexuality and the
World's Religions explores the intersection of the spiritual and
the carnal in Buddhism, Christianity, Confucianism, Daoism,
Hinduism, Islam, Judaism, and African and Native American spiritual
traditions. A separate section explores critical religious and
sexual topics in American society, including the role of
spirituality in gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender
communities; the role of sex in the modern witchcraft community;
and the ever thorny problem of religion and sexual liberty.
Reconciling sexuality and spirituality in every human soul is one
of religion's most important tasks. Students and other readers will
find this timely and comprehensive volume of interest in exploring
these issues.
