Description
Summary:[In this final section of the Notes on Moral Theology the author explores the extensive work of Catholic moral theologians reflecting on morality and the lives of gay and lesbian persons. He demonstrates that moral theologians not only critically engage a variety of statements by the different offices of the magisterium, but also investigate the topic by using the resources of the tradition: Scripture, the natural law, theological writings, and human experience. The result is a highly responsible open theological debate that studies not only the lives of some believers but the Church itself.]
