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 David Holbrook and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-24 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Never before published in the United States, David Holbrook's study offers the sort of common sense all too uncommon in this area of study. His essential premise is that sex has become converted from an instrument for the expression of happiness and affection into an end unto itself. In the search for sexual liberation, all that has been accomplished is the mechanization of sexuality and the destruction of the full range of emotions that nourish the human search for social and biological meaning. Sex and Dehumanization is one of those rare books that will immediately strike the reader as part of the common wisdom that has somehow been lost in a search for the pleasure principle unhinged from other values and goals.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. The spread of AIDS has brought an ominous and deadly manifestation of this thesis into the human equation, yet at the same tune the response to this menace has been nothing short of manic denial. A similar picture emerges in less deadly forms. 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.Sex and Dehumanization is in the great tradition of social history and psychiatric analysis. Robert Nye, writing in the Scotsman, says that "Holbrook's diagnosis of our unease should be attentively studied by all who really care about sex and love and the responsibility of freedom." Gabriel Pearson, in the Guardian echoes this sentiment, adding that "never has such a secular ethic been so firmly and urgently and usefully stated." And John Rex sees the book "as containing the germs of important and central moral discussion."

Download or read book From Shame to Sin written by Kyle Harper and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2013-06-10 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Rome was at its height, an emperor’s male beloved, victim of an untimely death, would be worshipped around the empire as a god. In this same society, the routine sexual exploitation of poor and enslaved women was abetted by public institutions. Four centuries later, a Roman emperor commanded the mutilation of men caught in same-sex affairs, even as he affirmed the moral dignity of women without any civic claim to honor. The gradual transformation of the Roman world from polytheistic to Christian marks one of the most sweeping ideological changes of premodern history. At the center of it all was sex. Exploring sources in literature, philosophy, and art, Kyle Harper examines the rise of Christianity as a turning point in the history of sexuality and helps us see how the roots of modern sexuality are grounded in an ancient religious revolution. While Roman sexual culture was frankly and freely erotic, it was not completely unmoored from constraint. Offending against sexual morality was cause for shame, experienced through social condemnation. The rise of Christianity fundamentally changed the ethics of sexual behavior. In matters of morality, divine judgment transcended that of mere mortals, and shame—a social concept—gave way to the theological notion of sin. This transformed understanding led to Christianity’s explicit prohibitions of homosexuality, extramarital love, and prostitution. Most profound, however, was the emergence of the idea of free will in Christian dogma, which made all human action, including sexual behavior, accountable to the spiritual, not the physical, world.
