Not In The Library

     It's not a banned book, but you will never find it in a library.

    Except the library at Marquette University where Daniel C. Maguire was a Professor of Ethics in the Theology Department when he wrote it twenty years ago.

    I would guess that Sacred Choices: The Right to Contraception and Abortion in Ten World Religions is out of print, but used copies  are still available through Amazon.

    About nineteen years ago I heard Daniel C. Maguire speak to a Kansas City audience. Among the questions asked at the conclusion of his talk was one about how he continued to hold onto his job at Marquette while promoting a book that appeared to be contrary to traditional Catholic dogma. His reply was to the effect that not all of the professors and the administrators at Marquette were of the same mind.
