Marital sex:

* Shows commitment, mutual love and respect, and leads to greater intimacy
* Gives the possibility of creating new life (contraceptives should not be used)

Extramarital sex:
* Is a form of exploitation for personal pleasure
* Can make people selfish
* Adultery breaks the marriage vows and shows no commitment to the spouse
* Distorts God’s riginal plan for human beings

52
Q

What is cohabitation?

A

A couple living together and having a sexual relationship without being married to one another

53
Q

“Sex should be saved for marriage” Evaluate this statement

A

Against:
* sex is an important aspect of compatibility in a relationship, and experiencing this before marriage can help partners understand their needs, preferences, and compatibility better, helping build a stronger relationship which is essential before marriage.
* Cohabitation

For:
* Sex should be procreative. “Be fruitful and multiply” Children are encouraged to be brought up in a stable family under a married couple. Extra-marital sex may result on children whilst perents are unprepared and not equipped for children. Marital sex prevents children growing up in an unstable environment whilst both parents are likely unequipped and unprepared. It is also likely the children will not be provided with basic needs such as education, a community, and fundamental growth and development. Extra-marital sex often occurs at younger ages. Parents are likely to be immature and also more likely not to have a stable income.
* Saving virginity for a singular person makes them feel important an dloved, strengthening relationships and bringing greater intimacy between the couple
* Sex before marriage trivialsies the act
Mention the theology of the body by Pope John Paul II

54
Q

“Contraceptives should be allowed within the Catholic Church” Evaluate this statement

A

For: Catholic teachings are outdated and therefore cannot coexist with contemporary society
* Protection from STIs
* Some forms (birth control) can regulate women’s hormones and menstrul cycle- Abbodes by the doctrine of double effect by Catholic Church
* It os non-negelagable that extra-marital sex is common with young people. Contraceptives prevent them from becoming pregnant when not equipped for parenthood. Pope Francis’ teaching of nuclear families

Against:
* The use of contraceptives goes agaisnt the Catholic doctrine the all sexual acts must be unitive and procreatuve, reducing and trivialising sex to meer personal pleasure. It opposes natural law and leads to a culture where life is not fully appreciated. This stance also emphasizes that true responsible parenthood involves natural family planning, which aligns with the body’s natural rhythms rather than artificially inhibiting procreation
* There is no risk of STIs if the partner has saved themselves to one person “Be fuitfula and multiply”
* Contraceptives are unnecessary due to family planning

55
Q

Give 2 contrasting reasons to the Catholic church, stating that same-sex parents should be allowed to have children

A
  • Research and lived experiences show that same-sex couples are just as capable as heterosexual couples of providing loving, supportive, and stable homes for children
  • Many people in British society (including some
    Christians) believe homosexuals should have the same rights as heterosexuals and so should be able to have children
56
Q

“Remarriage should be allowed in the Catholic Church” Evaluate this statement giving arguments for and against (12 marks)

A

For:
* The Catholic faith teaches compassion and forgiveness. People who divorce often undergo difficult, painful experiences, and denying them the chance to remarry can be seen as uncompassionate.
* Some argue that preventing remarriage can harm family life. Many divorcees who remarry wish to create stable, loving families, especially when children are involved. Allowing remarriage could strengthen family bonds, providing a nurturing environment for children.

Against:
* The Catholic Church views marriage as a sacrament and a lifelong covenant made before God. Allowing remarriage could be seen as undermining this sacramental view and weakening the commitment to marriage as indissoluble.
* Allowing remarriage could lead some to take marriage vows less seriously, knowing that they might be allowed to marry again in the future, making the marriage less likely to endure. The Church’s current stance on marriage reinforces a sense of commitment and responsibility within marriages.
