Abortion and the Christian Tradition: A Pro-Choice Theological Ethic

Margaret Kamitsuka's groundbreaking book, "Re-Envisioning Abortion: A Christian Ethical and Theological Perspective," offers a comprehensive critique and constructive counterargument on Christian ethical and theological grounds.

This thought-provoking work challenges the common perception that abortion is contrary to Christian teaching and values, providing a fresh perspective on this highly contested political issue.

Kamitsuka carefully examines the church's biblical and historical record, refuting the assumption that Christianity has always condemned abortion or considered personhood as beginning at the moment of conception.

She then offers ethical arguments about the pregnant woman's authority to make reproductive decisions and builds a theological rationale for seeing abortion as something other than a sin.

This book is an important new scholarly voice in the abortion debate, offering surprising new avenues for pro-choice theological discourse.

Don't miss out on this insightful and well-reasoned contribution to the ongoing conversation about reproductive rights and Christian ethics.
