Bad theology in a time of COVID[electronic resource] /by Leah Robinson. - Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :2024. - ix, 144 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Chapter 1. Prologue -- Chapter 2. Introduction -- Chapter 3. Bad Theology Revisited -- Chapter 4. Theology and Pandemics: A History -- Chapter 5.

"With an accessible and confident style, Leah Robinson invites readers to learn and remember amid the ravages of the COVID-19 pandemic. She deftly takes us through Christian theological responses to widespread disease, from The Plague of Justinian to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. For pastors and parishes who care for all kinds of sick folk, for chaplains and healthcare professionals who practice their healing arts every day, and for scholars and students who wrestle with the practical implications of our deepest theological convictions, this is a must read!" -Thomas Hermans-Webster, Affiliate Faculty in Methodist and Wesleyan Studies, Memphis Theological Seminary "Leah Robinson has written a highly readable, important book in her Bad Theology series. While anchored to impressive historical research, her work takes a needed look at the ways bad theology, or in fact a lack of thoughtful theology, has led to present day divisions and harmful actions on the part of many churches during the Covid pandemic. While the scholarship is clear and evident, I find the true strength of this book to be the heart of Robinson's desire to aid her community in self-reflection and development of theology that is directed toward imitating God and maintaining God's desire for human flourishing. Her love for people motivates her critiques of bad actions, and so the book is not only providing information, but a call to better theology and application of it." -Kristine Whaley, PhD., Assistant Professor of Religion and Humanities, St Petersburg College In this book, Leah E. Robinson discusses the Covid-19 pandemic as it was viewed in the theological community, both professionally and politically. Robinson explores the ways in which the misuse of various Christian theological doctrines have led to and perpetuated social ills. She begins by first defining her criteria for "bad" versus "good" theology, and then investigates the ways in which the handling of the Covid pandemic has provided damaging examples of "bad" theology. The book gives a voice to those who are trying to guide people towards scientific logic and good health, while simultaneously using the lens of Christian leadership. Leah Robinson is a Professor of Religious Studies and Theology in North Carolina, USA.
