Jesus the Radical: The Parables and Modern Morality connects the
lessons of six parables of the New Testament with philosophical
issues structured around contemporary morality and the art of
leading a good human life. In this manner, Raymond Angelo Belliotti
highlights just how radical was the historical Jesus' moral message
and how enormous a challenge he raised to the conventional wisdom
of his time. More important, this book demonstrates how deeply
opposed is Jesus' moral message to the dominant moral
understandings of our time. Although our conventional morality is
generally profoundly influenced by Judeo-Christianity, several of
Jesus' revolutionary insights have been marginalized. By imagining
how our world would appear if those insights were highlighted, we
can perceive more clearly the people we are and the people we might
become. Belliotti's analysis of the parables will be of keen
interest to professional philosophers, theologians, and educated
lay people interested in the connections between religion and
philosophy.
