Download or read book Sexual Morality written by John Piderit and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2012-11-03 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Informal customs have become the norm for most young adults in matters of sexual intimacy. Unfortunately, the sexual revolution has not proven to be as beneficial to women as was hoped, and society offers young men little preparation for future roles as husbands and fathers. In this book, Father Piderit argues that a natural law approach to morality provides a grounded pathway toward marriage, and shows why these fairly traditional practices help young people find a partner whom they can realistically promise to love until death do them part. Offering theory but focusing on practice, this book helps young adults understand why sexual intimacy should be reserved for marriage. The first two sections develop the natural law basis for behavior. Father Piderit points out that natural law relies primarily on reason, not religion, and his explanation provides a way to understand a Christian approach to morality as grounded in nature. The final third of the book explores what religious practice and membership in a Christian denomination adds to the natural law approach. Father Piderit uses clear, practical examples to show that positive goals are what motivate human beings. By breaking down the potentially abstract concept of morality into a set of intuitive practices guided by natural law, Father Piderit provides young people and students with the tools to create a positive courtship and, ultimately, a solid marriage based on strong, shared values and mutual respect.

Download or read book Sexual Morality in a Christless World written by Matthew Rueger and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like in St. Paul's day, the Church around the world-and particularly in the United States-now frequently faces hostility at the first mention of homosexuality in casual conversations or public-square debates. Author Matthew Rueger openly embraces this hot topic, giving you a framework for defending your beliefs by first exploring the relationship between sexual sin in ancient history and twenty-first-century tangles of the same flavor. Topics such as temptation, promiscuity, marriage, homosexuality, natural law, and the church's role in it all then swirl together to reveal our unifying need for a Savior. Rueger writes compassionately with a father's heart and adamantly with a determination to outline the truth about sexual morality from a reasoned Christian perspective. We need to expect the unpleasant from our opponents, arm ourselves with answers to common objections, and speak in clarity and love. And let's not lose sight of the church as a place of refuge for those who are battered down by their desires. Real people with real struggles are being lost. Find Your Voice. Book jacket.

Download or read book Anthropology and Sexual Morality written by Carles Salazar and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2006 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of sexual morality in Ireland has been traditionally associated with repression. In the last two decades, however, repression seems to have given way to its exact opposite. But where did this "repression" originate? And how can we account for this sudden and sweeping transformation in sexual mores? Based on solid ethnographic and historical analysis of sexual morality in rural Ireland, augmented by comparative data from Papua New Guinea, and being informed by from Freud's emblematic concept of repression, the author draws new conclusions that not only apply to the specific case of his Irish material but shed new light on the specific nature of an anthropological approach to the study of human societies.

Download or read book The Ethics and Morality of Human Sexuality written by Russell Hasan and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-03-23 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essay on human sexuality makes the argument that religion is wrong to regard sex as a sin. Sex belongs to the physical world, and to pleasure, and to the realm of sensations. But the physical world and sensations and pleasure are not inherently evil. Instead, if they make human life enjoyable, and they make people happy, then they are good, not merely in a practical sense, but also in the respect of good as ethics and virtue and morality. Arising from the mind-body conflict, which posits that the body and the soul are opposed forces at war with each other, religion has cut us in half, so that our own soul, our capacity for moral integrity, is in conflict with our deepest desires, longings, and fantasies. So, we repress those desires, or else we allow religion to teach us that sex is dirty trash, and then we act that belief out, because it is what we are taught. This essay is an antidote. It presents a new vision of moral integrity according to which it is okay to be sexual, but only in a healthy way, with consenting adults, in experiences that you enjoy. This book argues for a healthy sexuality, belonging to a healthy body with a healthy mind and soul, so that we are unified, at peace, and acting out our desires in a healthy way, with mind, body, and soul, as one. The only rational arguments against the virtue of sex are: rape and pedophilia, which problem is solved if sex is defined as only including conduct between consenting adults, so that rape and pedophilia are defined as acts of violence, not acts of sex; unwanted pregnancies, which problem is solved with legalized abortions; and infidelity, which problem is solved by only choosing to date or marry someone if you are sexually attracted to them and enjoy having sex with them, or else choose non-monogamy and polyamory. Every argument against the virtue of sex can be debunked and refuted. This is a book for people interested in the scholarly academic study of human sexuality, and for people who read books about ethics and morality, and also for any person looking to learn about the philosophy of LGBTQ gay pride.
Download or read book Sex and Dehumanization written by and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past quarter century, Holbrook argues, not only has the concept of sex become increasingly separated from the rest of existence, but sex casualties have increased disastrously. Whatever statistics one examines, whether those of sexual activity among young children, abortion, or sexual disease, one finds a grim antidote to any hopes of progress in the sphere of human dealings with the sexual. Holbrook locates many of the problems involved in this separation of sex and affection in the emergence of the idea that our lives are governed by impersonal forces beyond human control.
