Produktbeschreibung
Catholic Sexual Pathology and the Western Mind: The Early Medieval Era, Vol. 2 continues to document the correlation between Catholic sexual orthodoxy and Catholic sexual pathology. In 380 A.D. the Christian Church became the official religion of the Roman state government. The Catholic Church became the reincarnation of the Western Roman Empire (27 B.C.-476 A.D.) as it adopted the educational, medical, political, economic and military structures to become the crux of the Roman church government. The Medieval Catholic Church used pagan Greek, Roman and Persian sex negative codes while rejecting Hebrew sex positive codes and "flawed" German sex positive codes in establishing Catholic sexual orthodoxy. In the thirteenth century under a papal reign of terror heretics, Jews, witches, sodomites, prostitutes and lepers became targets of hate across Medieval Catholic Europe. The Papal Inquisition (1227-1500) intensified sexual repression and violence as the cultural norms when it condemned human sexual pleasure and human sexual love as evil. The papacy attempted to root out heresy which represented liberal, human, scholarly and scientific thinking. Heresy opposed church orthodoxy that kept the common people locked in "mental and emotional chains" and prevented men and women from living the authentic gospel of Jesus. Heretics were charged with deviant human sexual behavior. The fascist papacy employed Dominican and Franciscan priest-lawyers, most of whom had double-doctorates in canon law and civil law (doctor utriusque juris), to search across Europe in gestapo fashion for unorthodox men and women who could be prosecuted, imprisoned, tortured and burned. The Papal Inquisition, which placed mass fear, guilt, shame and anxiety in the common people over human sexual thoughts, human sexual emotions and human sexual behavior, reveals the veneer of Catholic sexual pathology reinforced by Catholic institutional pathology.
