If it is any indication of the writing style then I might need to keep a barf bag nearby while reading. [/quote] The title is rather immodest.

CatherineM Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 My husband and I read it together. It's great, and really orthodox. He definitely gets Theology of the Body. The first three chapters especially explaining the difference between a marriage based on true intimacy and one based on eroticism. We thought there was something wrong with us when things didn't start cooling off after 6 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC IMaGiNaZUN Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 One of my liturgy professors used an example from the liturgy, all the celibate seminarians were laughing away, to be honest I see the liturgy as very sexual. It enhances my devotion. I was at a friend's place, showing me the apartment, and he didn't want to show me the bedroom called it the "sanctuary of marriage" or something like that. Makes me crave an Iconostasis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinytherese Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 It sounds as if the book itself is good, but that the title is unsettling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
