Professor Claims Sexual Revolution Primary Cause of Cultural Decline and Societal Collapse
Pints with Aquinas
You'll Never See Marriage the Same
"I think the single primary cause of our cultural decline has got to be the sexual revolution, because that's the most non-negotiable thing on the part of the revolutionaries. And I think that whenever the church finds an evil, she invents a vaccine for it. And I think John Paul II's Theology of the Body is that vaccine."
The speaker argues the sexual revolution is the primary driver of cultural decline because sex is the most powerful human passion and the origin of life itself. He claims it has been weaponized to destroy families, without which no society can survive. He positions John Paul II's Theology of the Body as the antidote, calling it potentially the most important theological work since the Summa Theologica.
