Living in Sin?: A Bishop Rethinks Human Sexuality Paperback - 1990

Is celibacy the only moral alternative to marriage? In answering provocative questions on the nature of sexual relationships, Bishop Spong proposes for the church a positive and pastoral response to the changing patterns of human relationships in the world today.
First line
Some people will regard this as a book about sex.
From the rear cover
Is celibacy the only moral alternative to marriage? Should the widowed be allowed to form intimate relationships without remarrying? Should the church receive homosexuals into its community and support committed gay and lesbian relationships? Should congregations publicly and liturgically witness and affirm divorces? Should the church's moral standards continue to be set by patriarchal males? Should women be consecrated bishops? Bishop Spong proposes a pastoral response based on scripture and history to the changing realities of the modern world. He calls for a moral vision to empower the church with inclusive teaching about equal, loving, nonexploitative relationships.
