Description: It's a great idea having a single book, or Bible, as a guide to life, but unfortunately the original Bible is terribly out of date and also a monstrous vehicle of patriarchal culture which denigrates women. This Bible for the Modern Era critically analyses and deconstructs Christianity in the lights of reason, science and common sense, and provides five supreme moral principles for living. This Bible then gives guidance on the pressing issues of the day, and calls for a world where loving kindness isn't just an ideal, but is put into practice. Among other things, this Bible calls for a world where gender doesn't matter, where animals and the natural environment are respected, and where religious myth and metaphor can be enjoyed without the shackles of dogmatism.
