Not complete the sexual revolution by condoning more sex................but following Pope John Paul II’s recommendation for abstinence and faithfulness to the virtues of chastity and modesty.
This is liberal media again, folks. (Even if it is a Catholic source.)
Unless a person has taken West’s programs or audited them, they cannot speak to what he teaches, because he follows Pope John Paul II’s book “Theology of the Body.” What Pope would teach other than abstinence, faithfulness, chastity and modesty?

Editing my own post by adding the words “complete the sexual revolution by going full circle back to modesty, chastity, abstinence, and faithfulness to God’s laws.
Everyone who takes the class is touched profoundly.

I have seen Christopher West present at least some portion of TOB on EWTN. Only one aspect of the presentation was troubling to me, but it was huge. CW relayed a story about his in-laws attending Mass on Sunday, the day after their wedding night and consummation of the marriage. His father-in-law was moved to tears at the thought of the new meaning that “this is my body”/the Eucharist took on for him in light of his wedding night. I must confess that I found this really disturbing as a sexualization of the sacrament. I know many devout Catholics who think CW is the best, but I must admit that the linking of the marital act/sexual intercourse with the Eucharist as the body and blood of Christ was absolutely horrific to me.
