 Christians and Sexuality in the Time of AIDS Timothy Radcliffe, Lytta Basset, Eric Fassin, and John Bowden When AIDS was first identified, the Christian right immediately declared that this was God's punishment of promiscuous gays. But HIV and AIDS also spread amongst the heterosexual community and worked its devastating way through the African continent. HIV/AIDS now also poses a huge challenge to India, which has more than five million people living with HIV/AIDS. And yet The Vatican still condemns the use of contraceptives in any circumstances. Here a group of progressive Christians face the fundamental issues full on. Christians and Sexuality in the Time of AIDS seeks to explore issues of theology, sexuality and Christian ethics and includes contributions from Antoine Lion, Eric Fassin, Abdon Goudjo And Jean-Louis Vilde. |

 I
Call You Friendsby Timothy Radcliffe, OP I Call You Friends falls into two parts. In the first half, Father Radcliffe writes of his own life, from a privileged childhood and education at Downside to his calling to a life of poverty as a Dominican friar. The second half consists of addresses and talks the author has given to a range of audiences, from Manila to Prague to Mexico. In all of them, Father Radcliffe talks of fundamental religious truths in a manner which is potent yet undogmatic. |

 Seven
Last Wordsby Timothy Radcliffe, OP The Seven Words from the Cross are the focus of Christian meditation through the ages. Set to music by Haydn, they epitomise the depth of Jesus's human expereience and thus speak most profoundly to the human condition. Each meditation is illustrated with a picture of Christ on the Cross. Many are old masters;some more modern. The object is to lead the reader deeply into prayer and contemplation. But there is nothing fusty about Radcliffe's text. Whatever he writes is a breath of fresh air and these meditations are modern and contemporary in their reference. There are also many autobiographical touches which make these meditations more personal. This is perfect Lent reading by a spiritual master and one of the few Christian prophets in our time. |

 What
Is the Point of Being a Christian?
by Timothy Radcliffe, OP A Christian is pointed towards God, who is the point of everything. If one thinks of religion as just 'useful' then one has reduced it to another consumer product. But if we are pointed to God, this should make a difference to how we live. Christians are usually no better than anyone else, but their lives should be marked by distinctive forms of hope, happiness and courage. Shot through with humour, friendship and wisdom, the pages of this book outline a manner of living which is at once faithful to the teachings of Jesus and rooted in the tradition of the Church and at the same time responsive to the turbulence of the modern world. |
