PurposeofMarriage

YourChurchteachesthat allvoluntaryexcitementof sexinclinationsoutsidemarriageisunchastity.

Thatistrue.Butrememberthatsuchvoluntaryindulgenceinbodilypassions isnotwrongmerelybecausetheChurchsaysso.The Churchsaysitiswrongbe- causeitiswronginitself. Suchconductviolatesthe morallaw,bindingonall humanbeingseverywhere, whetherofanyreligionor noreligion.

Foritisobviousthat natureitself,asordainedby GodtheCreator,intended thedivisionintosexesand theparticularstructureof eachsexfortheprimary purposeofpropagatingthehumanrace.Associated pleasurableinclinationsare againobviouslyintendedby naturetoinducepeopleto fulfilthatprimarypurpose, whichforthesakeofresultantchildrendemandsthe permanentunityofthepar- tiesconcernedinmarriage.

Outsidemarriage,thedisorderlyyieldingtobodily cravingsissimplyindulgencein"lust."St.Paul, therefore,writingtothe Galatians(V.,16-21),says, "Walkinthespirit,andyou shallnotfulfilthelustsof theflesh Nowtheworks oftheflesharemanifest, whicharefornication,uncleanliness,immodesty ofthewhichIforetellyou, asIhaveforetoldtoyou, thattheywhodosuch thingsshallnotobtainthe KingdomofGod."

Igatheredfromthisthat Christwasratherindifferent aboutsex.

Thecaseoriginatedin May,1949,whentheRota broughtsuitafter'L'Unita" and"IIPaese"printedarticlesstatingthatannulmentsofmarriagecouldbe "bought"fromit.Subsequently,"L'Avanti"and "NoiDonne"madesimilar charges,andtheRota broughtsuitagainstthem also.
