review 1: In this short book from a non-religious perspective, the answer is “Nothing.” as Corvino focuses on refuting the various augments against the morality of homosexuality. He spends more time on arguments outside the Biblical ones, but gives those a chapter those as well. The discussion of morality questions without religion for context (focusing more on harms claims, both societal and individual, and “natural” arguments, instead) was really interesting.
review 2: This book is a concise summary of the moral arguments for and against homosexuality and it's various forms of individual and collective social behavior. While it does not break any new philosophical ground, the book can serve as a concise reference and as a "playbook" to those actively engaged in... more the public debate. Although John Corvino is gay, he does maintain objectivity in the presentation of the arguments. Nevertheless his goal is clear: to build a positive moral case for homosexuality from first principles as well as by debunking the opposition's case. Yes, this is a philosophy book, but there are frequent personal anecdotes, autobiographical details, and humor. I don't think you would be bored reading this book if you are at all invested in the debate. less
