Cardinal Richeliu ,

Cardinal Sin

The reviews of this piece of literature are mostly true, by definition, true... true. By decree of the students' royal court, the highest of the high justice systems, we decree this as not ideal. I hereby humbly request that this piece of literature be defrocked, as the noblest Cardinal Theodore McCarick was. By the decree of the second highest, jcfinsta, thou shalt stay in purgatory. Pope Weinstein and jc may not be fullest in their intentions, for they are very nepotist in nature. Nepotism between them has caused a Great Schism between Archduke FranzzzzZ FerdinandeR and the Visigoth/Ostrogoths of the Middle Tribes. The middle Tribes, as a fine mississippi man once put it bluntly, may be orthopratic. Orthopraxy has a place in our society, as this piece of literature may presume. As a great man once said, "I am the danger." This book is dangerous. Books are dangerous, we must spread this news, this good news, this gospel. Horse will between the bars, of course. A cohort will ensue. Mississagua is the birthplace of Boombl4, but the civilar war ukraine is the residencyyyy of stewie2k, kennyS, and Boombl4. The council will decide this literature's fate. This is God's country.

Teacher of Theology and Philosophy

In my 21 years of teaching high school theology and philosophy in a Jesuit institution, I’ve only found one textbook (I much prefer primary texts) I truly liked and it’s An Intro to Catholic Ethics. Longtin and Peach do an excellent job providing an accessible resource for students to understand the relationship between secular and Catholic ethics. They confront relativism as the chief obstacle to studying ethics and give appropriate credit to Aristotle, Kant, and the Utilitarians in shaping questions of virtue, intent and circumstances in the grand picture of human life.

I would like to see a bit more enthusiasm for the difference the Catholic perspective makes. Nevertheless, the authors appreciate the nuance and deep connections Catholics make to secular thinkers. After all, what would Aquinas be without Aristotle? Readers will not find a “Catholics are completely right and secular thinkers are completely wrong” vibe coursing throughout the text. Instead, one finds important interplay and influence from secular thinkers without concluding ethics are merely personal opinion.
