Résumé: | This collection of essays has several virtues. The contributors include some very well-known and respected thinkers who represent a range of views. The essays include discussions of a great many cases that are related to religious or LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender) rights and are valuable as a resource on that basis alone. Nonetheless, there is something dissatisfying about the uniformity of view presented, notwithstanding that some of the authors are in favor of same-sex marriage while others are against it., Douglas Laycock points out in the Afterward that “this is a depressing book,” because all of the contributors “agree that same-sex marriage is a threat to religious liberty” (p. 189). |
