Name Catechism on Homosexuality Keywords Fr. John A. Hardon SJ. SKU/Part Number Brief Description SOFTCOVER 56 PP Price $3.00 Extended Description Much confusion exists today in the Catholic Church and modern culture as to the ethical nature of certain sexual practices. Guided by objective standards that have been the constant teaching of the Catholic Church Father Hardon, in a question-and-answer format, informs the reader of the seriousness posed to individuals and society at large by the acceptance and practice of certain sexual aberrations. The Catechism on Homosexuality is an important tool for teaching correct moral standards. Contains the Declaration on Certain Questions Concerning Sexual Ethics Persona Humana by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (issued in 1975 under the authority of Pope Paul VI) and Letter to the Bishops of the Catholic Church on the Pastoral Care of Homosexual Persons by the Congregation for the Doctrine of Faith (issued under the authority of Pope John Paul II, October 1, 1986.) Father Hardon takes only nine short paragraphs to explain in the Foreword of this important 56 page book, the need to understand the teaching of the Catholic Church on homosexuality, and the reason for the shift from the formerly used term: sodomy.
