    Abstract: Suddenly, thanks to a surprising decision by the Hawaii Supreme Court, the issue of same-sex marriage is sweeping the country. Two-thirds of all Americans are reportedly opposed to the idea - but the discussion has just begun. Should the institution of marriage be redefined and expanded? Or should the state continue to restrict the choices of its gay and lesbian citizens
    Abstract: In this timely book that just might change the law of the land, William Eskridge offers arguments that will be controversial among both gays and straights. First, he demonstrates that only the modern West has failed to provide some form of sanction for same-sex unions. For those who claim that marriage has never been anything but heterosexual, Eskridge's historical evidence presents a profound challenge
    Abstract: Second, he argues that legalizing same-sex marriage would help civilize gays. Whether because of the biology of masculinity or the furtiveness of illegality, gay men have been known for their promiscuous subcultures. Promiscuity has encouraged a cult of youth worship and has contributed to the stereotype of homosexuals as people who lack a serious approach to life. It is time for gay America to mature, and there can be no more effective path to maturity than marriage

    Abstract: The rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender persons (LGBT) are strongly contested by certain faith communities, and this confrontation has become increasingly pronounced following the adjudication of a number of legal cases. As the strident arguments of both sides enter a heated political arena, it brings forward the deeply contested question of whether there is any possibility of both communities' contested positions being reconciled under the same law. This volume assembles impactful voices from the faith, LGBT advocacy, legal, and academic communities - from the Human Rights Campaign and ACLU to the National Association of Evangelicals and Catholic and LDS churches. The contributors offer a 360-degree view of culture-war conflicts around faith and sexuality - from Obergefell to Masterpiece Cakeshop - and explore whether communities with such profound differences in belief are able to reach mutually acceptable solutions in order to both live with integrity.
