Catholic Teaching on Homosexuality: New Paths to Understanding

Is homosexuality a blessing or a curse? Does it lead a person to God or away from God? Can a homosexual person be a good Catholic? With humility and pastoral sensitivity, Rev. Louis Cameli offers hope to the many who feel alienated from the Church because of these questions. Taking his cue from Pope Benedict's call to "express the teaching pastorally, theologically, and intellectually in the context of today's studies of sexuality and anthropology," Cameli provides a deeper understanding of the Church's theological language and stresses that while the Church is a teacher, it must also be a learner.
