Human Sexuality: A Catholic Perspective for Education and Lifelong Learning

Human Sexuality: A Catholic Perspective for Education and Lifelong Learning provides an understanding of sexuality based upon traditional Catholic teachings and a positive image of human sexuality as a unique gift from God. Topics include chastity; moral decision making; personal discernment; marriage preparation; personal, interpersonal, and procreative concerns; and sexuality education. It also examines such difficult issues as responsible parenting; sexuality and the single person; homosexuality; vowed or professed celibacy; adolescence; pornography; HIV/AIDS; and sexual abuse and dysfunction. The document concludes with a suggested framework for education in human sexuality, which calls upon parents, schools, teachers, religious educators, and the Church to join forces in developing among young and old alike a healthy and holistic Christian attitude toward sex.
