Description
Vivencio Ballano deftly reframes Catholic Social Teaching through a nonbinary, sociological-theological lens to recognise gender diversity and include LGBTQIA+ Catholics.
This book works at the intersection of the sociology of gender and morality and Pope Francis's approach to Catholic Social Teaching. Ballano tackles the core doctrines of human dignity, the common good, preferential option for the poor, and social solidarity. He calls for an update of Catholic Social Teaching's underlying philosophical binary moral framework based on natural law to a nonbinary sociological-theological one to acknowledge the incarnational nature of nonbinary sexuality and gender to unconditionally welcome all LGBTQIA+ Christians in the Church.
Designed for church authorities, moral theologians, Christian ethicists, and scholars and students of sociology, religion, social ethics, and gender studies, the book provides a clear conceptual toolkit for updating doctrinal language and practice toward an inclusive synodal Church.
