REL 2170 - The Bible as Battlefield

Institution:

Curry College

Subject:

Description:

Which side is the Bible on? It stands at the center of contemporary debates on such issues as evolution, homosexuality, abortion, and economic justice. But conservatives, liberals, and radicals all quote it to make their points. This course not only explores what the Bible actually says and does not say on such issues, but also examines the nature and origins of the biblical writings and the different ways of deriving ethical norms from it. This course is excellent for students at all levels.
