REL 80.09 Bible, Sex, and Sexuality
In our society, when controversial issues about sex and sexuality arise (e.g., the nature of marriage; homosexuality), participants in the debate often refer to the Bible and claim it mandates certain points of view. But the Bible's position is not necessarily so clear-cut. This course will take a close look at representative biblical texts and relevant scholarly literature in order to examine the Bible's complex perspectives on topics such as marriage, homosexuality, adultery, prostitution, incest, and celibacy.
