THE Vatican has sharply criticised a book on sexuality written by a prominent American nun, saying she has a "defective understanding" of certain core church teachings on issues like masturbation, homosexuality and marriage.
The Vatican's Congregation to the Doctrine of the Faith said the book, Just Love: A Framework for Christian Sexual Ethics by Sister Margaret Farley, a member of the Sisters of Mercy religious order and emeritus professor of Christian ethics at Yale Divinity School, posed "grave harm" to the faithful.
