Ebook: Feminist Theological Ethics : A Reader

For nearly two thousand years what has been called the Judeo-Christian ethic has
been developing. What is becoming increasingly clear to feminists is chat much of
chat ethic represents only a part of Christian and human reality-chat of men,
called to an ideal of celibacy, men largely in positions of status and dominance
within the church and who, however critical they may have been within the church
and who, however critical they may have been of their society, nevertheless were an
intrinsic pare of it. Little of the ethics held significance by the church and by divinity
schools has been written by women, by non-whites, by the poor, and by chose
whose expressed sexual orientations deviated from a heterosexual and marital one.
