Moral Theology and Guns in the United States: Staging an Encounter
Michael R. Grigoni
Abstrak
Guns hold a vexingly unique place in US American life. The United States has, by far, the highest prevalence of private firearm ownership and firearm-caused death among high-income nations in the world. Yet, there exist few sustained treatments of guns in the United States by moral theologians and Christian ethicists. This essay introduces the Journal of Moral Theology special issue on guns in US American life, which aims to stimulate theological reflection on this timely and pressing issue. It provides a brief overview of existing scholarship on the sociology of guns and moral theological treatments of guns and gun violence, and introduces the volume’s essays.
