Venerable Fulton Sheen once wrote that “Sex has become one of the most discussed subjects of modern times. The Victorians pretended it did not exist; the moderns pretend that nothing else exists.”
Our cultural fixation on sex, like other neurotic obsessions, has all the markings of a split personality.
