Christianity and Eros
In spite of the fact that marriage is recognized as a sacrament by the Church, the attitude of Christian thought towards the sexual relationship and its spiritualizing potentialities has been in practice singularly limited and negative. From the start Christian authors have been ill at ease with the whole subject. Sexual activity tended

Αll in all, the Church has done scant justice to its insight that sexual love is, at least potentially, a sacrament. [...]
