Colin Grant contends that, as a modern secular concept, altruism is a parody on the self-giving love of Christianity, so that its dismissal represents a social levelling that loses the depths that theology makes intelligible and religion makes possible. The Christian affirmation is that God is characterised by self-giving love (agape), then expected of Christians. Lacking this theological background, the focus on self-interest in sociobiology and economics, and on human realism in the political focus of John Rawls or the feminist sociability of Carol Gilligan, finds altruism naive or a dangerous distraction from real possibilities of mutual support. This book argues that to dispense with altruism is to dispense with God and with the divine transformation of human possibilities.New studies in Christian ethics. ;18.Altruism & Christian EthicsAltruismChristian ethicsAltruism.Christian ethics.241/.4Grant Colin1942-926547UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910780087103321Altruism and Christian ethics3776048UNINA
