Why the call to Love Thy Body? To counter a pervasive hostility toward the body and biology that drives today''s headline stories:
●
Transgenderism: Activists detach gender from biology. Kids down to kindergarten are being taught their body is irrelevant to their authentic self.
Is this affirming--or does it demean the body?
●
Homosexuality: Advocates disconnect sexuality from biological identity as male or female. Is this liberating--or does it denigrate biology?
●
Abortion: Supporters say the fetus is not a person, though it is biologically human.
Does this mean equality for women--or does it threaten the intrinsic value of all humans?
●
Euthanasia: Those who lack certain cognitive abilities are said to be human but not persons. Is this compassionate--or does it ultimately put everyone at risk?
In
Love Thy Body,
bestselling author Nancy Pearcey goes beyond politically correct slogans with a riveting exposé of the dehumanizing worldview that shapes current watershed moral issues, arguing that a holistic Christian view sustains the dignity of the body and biology.
Throughout the book, Pearcey entrances readers with compassionate stories of people wrestling with hard questions in their own lives--their pain, their struggles, their triumphs.
