“God knows what is best for humanity. He also knows the painful disordering of our sexual desires that came with the fall,” he says. “We are all disordered in some measure in different ways. He promises to help us with our disordered loves so that we can enjoy measures of contentment in the midst of our necessary self-denial.”
This is theology from St. Augustine, who would say that God is the source of all Good, and our desire is for the Good that is God whether we know it or not.
In the fall, his creation, man, rejected God, and our loves (desires) and reason became disordered. We now sin because we love in excess, or defect, or our love may have the wrong object. Christians should seek ordinate love, love in the proper amount for the proper object.
This is a ruthlessly condensed synopsis of the subject.
