Mary Wept Over the Feet of Jesus by Chester Brown

informative reflective sad fast-paced

4.0

This idiosyncratic book is essentially a polemic arguing a) that Jesus's mother was a prostitute, and b) that Jesus's teachings do not condemn prostitution. More broadly speaking, Brown makes the case that Jesus consistently taught that radical love and acceptance of others is the essence of God, and that God Himself did not want human beings to slavishly follow his laws. 

Recommended for anyone with an open mind, and especially for anyone with an interest in the uses and misuses of scripture.
