1 CHRISTIAN SEXUAL ETHICS (Upper Level Theology Course) Course Description This course will examine Christian sexual ethics with a specific focus on sexual morality in the Roman Catholic moral tradition. Central questions addressed in this course include: Why does the Church care about sexual morality at all? Why does the Roman Catholic Magisterium teach what it does about sexual ethics? What are the best ways to articulate Christian convictions about human sexuality? Through an examination of both historical and contemporary texts, students will be able to answer these questions and to consider the relevance of Christian sexual ethics for the pressing concerns of life in today s world. Course Objectives By the end of this course, students will be able to: Explain why the Church understands sexual ethics to be a theological concern Differentiate biblical, natural law, and virtue based approaches to sexual ethics Distinguish the contours of contemporary debates in Christian sexual ethics Assess the utility of various Christian theological approaches for specific issues in sexual ethics Course Requirements In addition to attendance at class lectures, where students are expected to actively participate in class discussions, there will be three other assignments: 1. A 500-word essay in which you identify the most pressing issue related to sexual ethics on this campus and defend your assessment Due on the last day of class during our second week a. Please Note: The class session this day will be dedicated to a discussion of your essays. Everyone will have the chance to defend their assessments and should work to convince their classmates that the issue they have outlined is in fact the most pressing concern in sexual ethics on this campus. At the end of the class, we will vote on the issue we most want to address as a class, and this will become the topic of our final week in the course. 2. An in-class midterm examination that will address the class readings 3. An 8-10 page final paper, due on the date the registrar s office has specified for our normal final exam. I will distribute the assignment for this paper three weeks before the due date to give you ample time to reflect on the question and to produce a well-reasoned response based on the class readings. Grading Your grade for the course is composed of three parts: 15% Class Participation 20% 500-Word Essay 30% Midterm 35% Final Paper
2 A Note on Class Participation: Your grade will be based your presence in class and your active contribution to our discussions of the assigned readings and the issues involved. In order to make this large component of your grade as fair as possible, I will keep track of your comments. Classroom Etiquette In order to create an environment for active learning and participation, I would ask you to observe the following: Please be respectful of one another and pay attention when a classmate is talking. Attempt to see the value in ideas with which you might disagree and listen to the arguments your classmates are making. You may use a laptop to take notes in class if you wish, but please be aware that I recognize the temptation of the internet, and I will therefore call on students with laptops first when I have in-class questions. Please complete any necessary texting, ing, phone calls, etc. before or after class. COURSE OUTLINE AND READINGS Part I How Is Sexual Ethics a Religious Concern? Week 1 A Divine Plan?
