Reviews

Ballano challenges the traditional and contemporary Catholic Natural Law Theory that justifies discrimination, promotes homophobia, and excludes LGBTQI+ people from the Catholic Church. He argues for the full inclusion of LGBTQI+ people in the Church, proposing an interdisciplinary alternative moral framework guided by the social sciences, feminist theory, and synodality, that provide a thorough and foundational justification for a long-overdue revision of Catholic sexual anthropology, ethical methodology, and doctrinal teaching regarding human sexuality. This book is essential reading for those interested in ethical theory, its application to sexual and gender ethical issues, and calls for institutional and doctrinal reform in the Catholic Church. * Todd Salzman, Creighton University, USA *
