All human beings are sexual creatures and there are few, if any, for whom the whole area of sexuality and relationships is not o f interest and concern. This book starts by taking seriously theological eflection about sex from the perspective o f the Hebrew Scriptures and the New Testament. Immediately some will ask, 'W hy bother with this? I am not a Christian, so this is o f no relevance to my thinking on sexual ethics.' This is an understandable position, but Western ideas have emerged from aJudaeo-Christian culture and if one is to understand current views on sex one has to trace their origins. Unless we understand where existing ideas have come from, we will not be able to develop a rational way forward.
It will be suggested in this book that the time has come for a reappraisal of traditional views on sexual ethics. Such a reappraisal will, of course, be resisted as every other reappraisal has been resisted, but counter arguments then need to be presented taking account of the known evidence including that gleaned from genetics, psychology and the physical sciences. Some hold that sexual morality is set in stone and can never alter but, as this book will make clear, this is far from the case.
