Uta Ranke-Heinemann

    October 2, 1927 – March 25, 2021

    This German author, initially a theologian, delves into the history of religion and critically examines religious dogma. Her academic path is marked by a courageous questioning of established church doctrines, leading to the loss of her canonical mission in 1987. She ultimately left Christianity, publicly rejecting the divinity of the Bible and Jesus. Her work embodies a profound intellectual and personal stance on faith and tradition.

    Eunuchs for heaven : Women, Sexuality and the Catholic Church
    • 1991

      This is an expose of the development of sexual ethics in the Catholic Church, which strikes back against centuries of male domination and reveals attitudes of ingrained anti-feminism and hostility to all pleasures. The author explores how women have been excluded from the ecclesiastical stage.
