Moral Theology
A Complete Course Based on St. Thomas Aquinas and the Best Modern Authorities
David McClamrock
"Moral Theology" by John A. McHugh and Charles J. Callan is a comprehensive treatise on Catholic moral principles written in the mid-20th century. The work aims to systematically explore the regulation of human conduct according to reason and revealed truth, based on the teachings of St. Thomas Aquinas and modern authorities. Its focus is on providing a deeper understanding of moral dilemmas and encouraging virtuous living beyond mere avoidance of sin. The opening of the book establishes the purpose of this treatise as a detailed guide to Catholic Moral Theology, emphasizing its foundation in both faith and reason. The authors outline the importance of moral theology in guiding individuals towards their ultimate end, which is God, highlighting the necessity of a comprehensive understanding of human acts, morality, and the law. They also note the book's approach to addressing contemporary moral issues that were not discussed in earlier works and emphasize the blend of theory with practical examples to enhance understanding and application of moral principles in everyday life.
