	I'm just the messenger   Apr 1, 2008
I read this book and found it to contain half truthes and lies. Christopher West is trying to justify his own desire to limit the number of children he has. There is nowhere in the teachings of the Catholic Church that allows a married couple to use any form of contraceptive. That includes NFP. NFP is not allowed to be used to limit the number of children a Catholic couple can have. It's popular to teach that Catholics couples have a choice when it comes to the size of their family but that's not the truth. It's also popular to claim that John Paul's call for responsible parenting means he was instructing couples to have only a few children. That's not true. It is vastly more responsible to have a large family. That sounds so backwards but it's the truth. There is a serious shortage of priest in the Catholic Church. That shortage has been caused by the contraceptive mentality of Catholic couples. A large family is a sign that the parents are generous (according to John Paul II). It's that generosity that's learned at home that leads to vocations. Next time you hear people praying for priest ask yourself how many of them have a large number of children. That's like a farmer praying for a good crop but he only planted one or two seeds.

Christopher West puts in laymans terms JPII's Theology of the Body. Of course, it is not all in this book but West provides a rich overview of the uplifting material.
	Simply the best!  Nov 25, 2007
This book is simply the best such book I have seen. It is written in question-and-answer format, easy to read and understand. I had hoped the answers would be good - and they were. I was surprised even more to discover that the questions were so well-stated too. Popular opinion is that traditional views on sexuality are outdated, and that only those with their heads in the sand still hold traditional beliefs. But if you genuinly want to understand the reasons why so many people believe in the sacredness of sexuality within marraige, then give this book a shot. No one explains these views with more clarity than Christopher West.
	To the point  Sep 26, 2007
Well written and to the point. Author does not shy away from answering pointed questions with the truth no matter how difficult it might be to hear.
	Phenomenal Book  Sep 26, 2007
I am blessed with a wonderful husband of 12 yrs., six children and a Master's of Theology degree from University of Dallas. Even so, I remain amazed and personally challenged by the spiritual and intellectual clarity found in West's book. Seriously, it is a must-read for anyone old enough to approach the topic of sex.
