Product Description

This book makes a significant contribution to the contemporary debate about equality. It examines the roots, the development, and the fruits of a Christian understanding of and commitment to equality. It argues that Christian notions of equality are still challengingly relevant in today's world and in contemporary discussion. For the author, the Church has an important role not only in making statements and in trying to influence the way things go, but also in the exemplary way it may structure itself and its worship and in the rigorous way in which it examines its own life. A central place is also afforded in the discussion to issues of public policy and economic relationships, since a decent community should affirm and demonstrate a commitment to justice in the way it is structured and in its dealings with its members, particularly the poor, the vulnerable and the excluded. Duncan Forrester has consistently offered some of the most challenging moral theology and ethics of recent years.;On Human Worth written with anger passion and compassionate concern, reflects the lifetime's experience of a major theologian and committed public churchman and complements recent significant campaigns such as 'End the Debt' and the work of the Jubilee 2000 Movement.
