The Anglican Communion has been tearing itself apart over the issue
of homosexuality since the Lambeth Conference in 1998 and rumblings
of discontent stretch back years before that. Most Anglican debate
on homosexuality focuses the argument on the Bible. Does the Bible
allow homosexuality or not? This book begins by taking one step
back from the argument. It looks at what it means to approach a
text as scripture, from the standpoint of faith. It then examines
why the Bible is used to claim such radically different positions
and why those who argue for either position can legitimately claim
to find their argument supported by reading the Bible. Anglicans
(and others) who disagree about what their scriptures claim need to
understand why there is a disagreement. It is only by stepping back
from the argument and trying to understand why it exists hat any
sort of resolution can ever be found.
