The result of four decades of research, Jesus Was a Feminist
compellingly presents the case that Jesus treated women equally
with men, and he boldly broke the customs of his day to involve
them in his work. Renowned scholar and leader among liberal
Catholics Leonard Swidler examines all gospel texts involving
women, asserts that women were involved in the writing of two of
the gospels, and outlines the importance of women in Jesus'
ministry and the creation and development of the early church. He
shows how Jesus was a feminist and modern Christians should be too.

This book provides an important step in the emerging movement
toward global dialogue and peace. It is the belief of the book's
contributors that human culture has entered a new age of Global
Dialogue in response to increased inter-penetration of the world's
cultures. In our emerging global village, guidance is needed, for
as we have painfully seen, our century is not only the century of
world culture, it is also the century of world wars, world famines,
and worldwide environmental destruction. In this inspiring and
challenging book, Prof. Leonard Swidler presents the next stage in
the Global Ethic Movement. "For All Life" includes Professor
Swidler's draft of a Universal Declaration of a Global Ethic,
followed by responses from religious scholars representing
Christian, Buddhist, Muslim, Jewish, Hindu, African, Chinese, and
Baha'i traditions.
