After Christianity

"Daphne Hampson contends that the Christian myth must be discarded as both untrue and unethical. Nonetheless she seeks to find a way forward in continuity with the Western theological tradition." "In a penetrating analysis Dr. Hampson shows that Christianity cannot be true, for it requires a particular revelation which we can no longer think possible. Moreover its situatedness in past history makes Christianity necessarily sexist. In our religion, she argues, our relation to the past must be what it is in every other sphere." "In what is the heart of the book, Dr. Hampson proceeds to explore how, drawing on our experience of that dimension of reality which is God, we should conceptualize what God may be. A final chapter is devoted to a discussion of the ethical context of the lived life within which such a spirituality may flourish."--BOOK JACKET.
