ISBN: 9781853117824

Giles Fraser is one of the most passionate and outspoken figures in the Church today, and a refreshing antidote to the bland and soggy language of much of modern Christianity - not least, he admits, of his own liberal tradition.

Inspired by the fiery language of the Bible whose writers believed in what they said as if their lives depended in it, here is a real prophet for our times who has the honesty and bottle to say what he believes without hesitation or qualification.

In 'Christianity With Attitude' he gets to theological grips with a wide range of subjects including the morality of war, the meaning of death, church committees, sex, atheism, giving up smoking, Bratz girls and why you can't trust Christian cowboys.

This book is a collection of articles written by Giles Fraser for The Guardian, The Church Times and Radio 4's Thought For The Day. They span five years and are often responses to events in the news at the time - it can be interesting to read some of them with the benefit of hindsight. Giles Fraser writes with an excellent style, engaging and approachable with a clarity of expression and the use of examples from daily life as well as reference to thinkers from the past. Giles Fraser is from the liberal wing of the church and you're left in no doubt of his views on some of the more controversial issues of the moment such as homosexuality, the Anglican Communion, George Bush and politics, racism, Israel and Palestine. He has much to criticise about the evangelical wing of the church and he's not afraid to speak his mind. I found this a refreshing read as a series of short articles about different issues, but those from a more fundamentalist or conservative position might find it uncomfortable reading.
