Amazon reader review: In an age of hype, hyperbole and misinformation Jack gently guides the reader on his journey supported by extensive research and clearly footnoted sources. He is able to illuminate cultural biases and a history of using the bible to support oppression allowing the reader to feel enlightened. The review of the current divorce rates among all Americans particularly among religious fundamentalist, traditionally opposed to gay marriage on the grounds it weakens the institution and fabric of society among other biblical claims, was quite an eye opener. As a heterosexual who simply wishes to support all persons in finding love, comfort, welcome within our churches and our society I welcome Jack Rogers substantial contribution to the ongoing debate.
