Jesus the radical

"Jesus the Radical: the Parables and Modern Morality connects the lessons of six parables from the New Testament with philosophical issues structured around contemporary morality and the art of leading a good human life. In this manner, Raymond Angelo Belliotti highlights just how radical the historical Jesus' moral message was and what an enormous challenge he posed to the conventional wisdom of his time. More important, this demonstrates how deeply opposed Jesus' moral message is to the dominant moral understandings of our time. Although our conventional morality is profoundly influenced by Judeo-Christianity, several of Jesus' revolutionary insights have been marginalized. By imaging how our world would appear if those insights were highlighted, we can perceive more clearly the people we are and the people we might become."--Back cover.
