In Pursuit Of Love : Catholic Morality and Human Sexuality



A comprehensive moral theology text that examines human sexuality from the perspective of the Catholic Church. This book discusses how sexuality is a gift that must be integrated with love, commitment, and human dignity. This book seeks to guide readers to understand healthy sexuality while being in harmony with the teachings of the Catholic faith. The author emphasizes that sexuality is not merely a biological instinct or procreation, but rather a body language that expresses love, intimacy, and total commitment. He also argues that sexual relations find their most appropriate and sacred moral and contextual meaning within the bonds of marriage. This book outlines the Catholic view on various issues of sexual morality, including moral violations such as adultery, pornography, and sexual violence, bioethical and health issues, including family planning (FP), abortion, HIV/AIDS prevention, and masturbation and the morality of homosexuality, while calling for respect for the dignity and civil rights of all individuals. This book balances the traditional teachings of the Catholic Church with a more compassionate, personalistic approach that is relevant to modern realities.
