Rev Dr Robert E. Shore-Goss, Bob Shore-Goss is a theologian and author. Goss was brought up in a devout Roman Catholic family and felt called to the priesthood, being ordained as a Jesuit in 1976. He left the Jesuits in 1978 going on to receive a Th.D. in Comparative Religion from Harvard University. Goss taught in the Religious Studies Department of Webster University (1994–2004), and served as chair of the Department. His denial of tenure by the University was controversial with allegations by Goss that this was due to his outspoken views on sexuality. Webster Pride, the student organization for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender rights, did not take an official stance. Webster Pride's president was quoted in the student newspaper as not opposed to the decision "because she doesn't believe the decision had anything to do with homophobia." He has been involved in gay organizations such as ACT UP, Queer Nation, and the gay Roman Catholic group DignityUSA. Goss has served as co-chair of the Gay Men's Issues in Religion Group of the American Academy of Religion. He serves on the National Advisory Board of the Center for Lesbian and Gay Studies in Religion and Ministry of the Pacific School of Religion. He married for the second time in 2009. His published works include: * ''Jesus ACTED UP: A Gay and Lesbian Manifesto'' 1993, San Francisco, CA: HarperCollins * ''Take Back the Word: A Queer Reading of the Bible'' 2000 (co-edited with West, Mona), Cleveland, OH: Pilgrim Press * ''Queering Christ: Beyond Jesus ACTED UP'' 2002, Cleveland, OH: Pilgrim Press * ''Gay Catholic Priests and Clerical Sexual Misconduct: Breaking the Silence of Sodom'' 2005 (co-edited with Boisvert, Donald), New York, NY: Haworth Press * ''The Queer Bible Commentary'' 2006 (co-edited with Bohache, Thomas; Guest, Deryn; West, Mona), London: SCM-Canterbury Press * ''Queering Christianity: Finding a Place at the Table for LGBTQI Christians'' 2013 (co-edited with Bohache, Thomas; Cheng, Patrick S.; West, Mona), Santa Barbara, CA: ABC-CLIO Shore-Goss is currently an adjunct faculty member at Claremont School of Theology.〔(Robert Shore-Goss's faculty page at Claremont School of Theology website )〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Robert Goss」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
