A new course on sexual ethics, contraception and other “reproductive issues” is now available to Protestant seminaries in the United States.
The Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice, in conjunction with the Chicago Theological Seminary, has launched the curriculum for a course called "Theology and Reproductive Choice.”
The course claims to teach seminary students “theological perspectives on reproductive freedom as a distinct subject.”
A press release states that the course “examines contemporary issues such as religious authority over moral decision-making, the role of religion in developing public policy about reproductive issues, and sexual ethics.”
