McNeill's book remains central to the story."--Malcolm Boyd, author of Gay Priest "A brave and good book which shatters bad myths."-- Commonweal The first edition of Father John F. McNeill's classic The Church and the Homosexual , published in 1976, convincingly established that the Bible does not condemn homosexuality.
