Summary: If you dissent from the Catholic Church teaching...
Comment: Then you will like this book. If you follow the Church's teaching, live by it, love it and follow it, prepare to be terribly insulted. You will be called a "robotic Catholic" and one who is not "tolerant" of dissenting teaching. It is a Protestant book shrouded by Catholic terminology, but not Catholic understanding. The author misses a perfect opportunity to viably discuss Catholic theology. Instead, we are posed with immoral choices compared to even more immoral choices without true understanding of why or how they are immoral. The author has no concept of a true moral dilemma. Church teaching is presented as only one of many "opinions" equal, and even inferior to any number of other "individuals" opinions. Those looking for a moral compass should look for a more definitive teaching. I would suggest the Catechism of the Catholic Church for beginners.

Summary: Good Family Fun
Comment: This was a very interesting book. It broadened my intellectual horizions. This man truly understands the truths of human nature. Higgins, picks up common moral issues in the Church and attacks them passionately. I could not put the book down, I felt it was my duty to continue to read it. I loved it!

Rating: 4
Summary: Fairly presents both sides of the issue
Comment: Higgins' text fairly presents both sides of moral issues: the Church's and counterarguments towards the church's position.
