Summary: Hope and reason for those with unwanted same sex attractions
Comment: David Morrison shares candidly of his own journey from gay activist to chaste Catholic. He offers realistic hope for those with unwanted same sex attractions.

In describing his own discovery of the truths behind Catholic teaching on sexuality, Morrison gives us more than just pious religious sentimentality. He gives a gutsy desciption of his own transition. This book shows a faith that goes beyond doctrine and into the heartfelt experience of the grace of God.

Summary: offering hope to other homosexuals
Comment: I'm a seventeen year-old girl who is a practicing Catholic. I was very confused when talking about the homosexual issue. This book not only helped me realize that you are to love the sinner and hate the sin but it also taught me that it is possible for homosexual's to live a chaste life. I also was taught through this book that many homosexuals just want to be loved, and their search has been a difficult one, as pointed out in Morrison's book that hardly any homosexuals remain monogamous, that some have many, many partners. The problem with today's society is that heterosexual's are just as wrong. They don't even know that sex before marriage is wrong, so it's very difficult for them to understand that homosexual's are not to perform sexual acts and to remain chaste. Thank You, David, for writng this book and offering hope to other homosexuals.

Summary: Rendering the Gospel into "Bad News"
Comment: This book is just another attempt to render a vibrant, embracing faith into a closed, backward ideology. It does a disservice to the affirming message of Christ, to Gay Christians and those who love them.

One might as well argue that the world is flat (Which is the "literal" interpretation of the Old testament cosmology) as claim that one can change their natural, god-given sexual orientation be it towards members of the same gender or not.

My definition of morality involves compassion, justice, and truth. By these standards this book is immoral.
