He shows how marriage came to contain the force of sexuality, to harness its energies both to create and serve the family, and the well being of wider communities. The idea that sex is entirely a private issue is an error Dr. Rilley argues, with potentially disastrous consequences, both for the individual and societies."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 410 0$aReligious Studies: Bloomsbury Academic Collections 606 $aChastity 606 $aSex$xReligious aspects$xChristianity$xHistory 606 $aSex$xReligious aspects$xJudaism$xHistory 606 $aSex$xSocial aspects 606 $2Christian aspects of sexuality, gender & relationships 615 0$aChastity. 615 0$aSex$xReligious aspects$xChristianity$xHistory. 615 0$aSex$xReligious aspects$xJudaism$xHistory. 615 0$aSex$xSocial aspects. 676 $a241.66 700 $aRiley$b Patrick$cDr,$0153821 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910798658303321 996 $aCivilizing sex$93689431 997 $aUNINA
