Author: Fr. Robert Spitzer, S.J
The truth will set you free, declared Jesus. Father Spitzer exposes the philosophical and theological foundations of Catholic morality and shows how, even from a scientific perspective, these teachings promote human flourishing using statistics from the outside world.
This book demonstrates how abandoning fundamental Christian beliefs—from marriage to the sanctity of unborn life—leads to noticeably higher rates of depression, anxiety, substance abuse, family conflicts, and suicidal ideation. The data were gathered from universities, general psychiatry, medical institutions, and general survey organizations like Pew Research, Gallup Research, and Harris Poll. The data speaks for itself.
The Church's moral teachings today embarrass many people, especially the young. They see it as nothing more than a tired form of disdain or hostility. The reality, however, couldn't be further from that. Sin lowers man and robs him of his joy, and a moral life is a life filled with love. We may save our loved ones from a life of darkness and influence a change in our culture if we speak the truth about dangerous behaviors. This text gives readers what they need to know to speak credibly, effectively, and persuasively about the most contentious moral issues with scientific clarity.
