Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Christianity and Sex Problems The first edition of this book was written with sufficient consciousness of having a purpose to fulfill, or a message to deliver, but in much literary inexperience. I had not chosen to address a particular circle of readers, and I did not produce a book which was readily assignable to any special class of literature. It is too late now to remedy in full this defect, which after all perhaps occasioned a broader, more human treatment of the subject than I should otherwise have given it. It is meant for thoughtful readers in general, not for any particular class or profession. If, however, one must name a section of literature to which to assign it, perhaps it should be included in moral theology. Havelock Ellis has shown that modem scientific sex literature has an ample precedent in the passionless survey of sexual phenomena made by Sanchez and other Catholic moralists. This body of Catholic literature has often been criticised and even denounced; - nor indeed are the strictures upon it always irrelevant or unjustified. But it must not be inferred from the fact that such a thing as bad casuistry exists, that no science of casuistry is needed, and that no good casuistry is possible.
