Sex relations to be subject of sessions
"Sex and Christian Fulfillment" is the topic for six Wednesday evening lecture-discussions, starting tonight. The 7 to 8 p.m. programs, sponsored by St. Lawrence Catholic Student Center, are open to all students.
"Sex Is Never Wrong," is to-morrow's topic. Others include pre-marital sex, love and sex in marriage and contraception in the Christian marriage.
The informal discussions will be led by several Jesuit graduate students of theology from the St. Louis University Divinity School in St. Marys.
Father Brendan Downey, Catholic chaplain, said the short series had been arranged in response to requests from students. Similar three- to six-week series are being planned on such topics as "The God Is Dead Debate," "Contemporary Atheism," "The Thought of Teilhard de Chardin," "Contemporary Thought in Catholic Theology," "Recent Changes in the Church," "Ecumenism," and "Law and Authority in the Church."
