Chapter 3 Homosexuality, Same-Sex Union, and LGBTQI Inclusivity in the Catholic Church -- Chapter 4 Reappraising Gender Complementarity and Heterosexual Marriage in the Catholic Church.This book employs an experimental approach to critically re-examine the Catholic Church’s traditional teachings on homosexuality, heterosexual marriage, and Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Intersexual (LGBTQI) inclusivity in light of Pope Francis’s inductive synodal theology and modern sociology. With the growing complexity of today’s culture and the advancement of social science research, it argues that the empirical foundations of the traditional Church’s doctrines on topical moral issues need to be scientifically re-assessed, so as to update them in view of Francis’s synodality and sociological research on gender, sexuality, and same-sex union. Discussion pertaining to whether homosexuality is naturally disordered and whether heterosexuality is the only criterion for Christian marriage remain lingering empirical issues in the Church that require a sociological and inductive synodal analysis, rather than the traditional deductive philosophical and theological method that is largely based on natural law theory. This topical book is of appeal to scholars and students of sociology, theology, as well as religious, biblical, and gender studies.SexReligion and sociologyEthicsChristianityCatholicismGender StudiesSexuality StudiesSociology of ReligionMoral Philosophy and Applied EthicsChristianitySex.Religion and sociology.Ethics.Christianity.Catholicism.Gender Studies.Sexuality Studies.Sociology of Religion.Moral Philosophy and Applied Ethics.Christianity.282Ballano Vivencio O1062378MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQ9910881089403321LGBTQI Inclusivity, Homosexuality, and Same-Sex Marriage in the Catholic Church4207172UNINA
