The Catechism of the Catholic Church clearly and unambiguously states that homosexual acts are `intrinsically disordered' and `contrary to the Natural Law'. It asserts that'under no circumstances car they be approved'. At a time when there is growing acceptance of gays and gay sex within the Church, the authorities continue to argue the case against both. Yet are their arguments sourd? In A Question of Truth, Gareth Moore, a Dominican priest, challenges the teaching of the Catholic Church on its own grounds. He scrutinizes the Church's arguments, which are based on both the Bible and natural law, and finds them wanting. He subjects the Church's beliefs to a meticulous and scholarly examination and concludes that `there are no good arguments ... against what have come to be known as homosexual relationships'. To a greater or lesser extent, all of the Christian churches consider Scripture and natural law to be of vital importance to the debate surrounding homosexuality; Gareth Moore's work is therefore highly relevant to all Christians. Gareth Moore was committed to the motto of his order, Veritas (truth), and he offers new insight into traditional arguments. He died in December 2002, shortly after completing this revolutionary and thought-provoking book.
Gareth Moore op was a Dominican priest of the English Province. He lectured in theology and philosophy in Oxford. He also wrote The Body in Context (Continuum 2001).
