Blessing Same-Sex Unions: The Perils of Queer Romance and the Confusions of Christian Marriage Hardcover - 2005

by Mark D. Jordan

In this incisive work, Jordan shows how carefully selected ideals of Christian marriage have come to dominate recent debates over same-sex unions. Opponents of gay marriage, he reveals, too often confuse simplified ideals of matrimony with historical facts.
