How realistic are the Church’s teachings on sexuality? Tune in to the June 9 episode of ‘Catholicism Live!’ Our Theology of the Body series hosts Alan Becker and David Delaney will discuss this topic under the theme: “It’s Not Hard, but It is Humanly Impossible!” Follow along with these reflection & discussion questions:
• How can the Church say that something like abortion or contraception is wrong for everyone when they do not know each person’s personal circumstances and motivations?
• How can the Church say that everyone must follow his conscience and then still call certain acts (such contraception) sinful?
• Some claim that the Church is against human freedom because of all the rules they place on her members (sex outside of marriage, contraception, abortion, clerical celibacy, etc.). How do we respond to this?
