The Flesh and the Devil: Beliefs About Religious Evil and Views of Sexual Morality

Baker, Joseph O., Molle, Andrea, Bader, Christopher D. 03 March 2020 (has links)
We examine an understudied connection between religion and sexuality: beliefs about the reality of supernatural evil (Satan, hell, and demons). After controlling for multiple other aspects of religiosity, beliefs about religious evil remain a strong and consistent predictor of attitudes about issues involving sexuality, including abortion, homosexuality, premarital sex, extramarital sex, and pornography use. Further, the effects of religious service attendance on attitudes about sexuality are contingent upon beliefs about religious evil. Moral condemnation of non-traditional sexuality is significantly higher among regular religious participants who believe strongly in religious evil compared to actively religious people who disbelieve in religious evil, as well as compared to people who do not attend religious services. Beliefs about religious evil are therefore central to understanding the empirical connections between religion and support for conservative, traditional views of sexual morality.

Estado e moralidade sexual: respondendo aos pleitos jurídicos de pessoas transgêneras / State and sexual morality: answering the juridical claims of transgender people

Lago, Pablo Antonio 26 May 2017 (has links)
A presente tese busca identificar e defender os principais direitos de pessoas transgêneras, particularmente aqueles ligados ao dever do Estado de tratar a todos os indivíduos com igual respeito e consideração. Para tanto, além de se basear nas diferentes acepções da expressão direito apresentadas por Ronald Dworkin e asseverar as distinções entre direitos morais e políticas (policies), é oferecida uma concepção do conceito jurídico de gênero marcada por dois elementos centrais: a expressão de determinado gênero (à luz do espectro masculino/feminino) e o reconhecimento social de que o indivíduo pertence a certa categoria de gênero. Sustenta-se que esta concepção do conceito jurídico de gênero é fundamental para a adequada interpretação e solução de questões jurídicas que levem em consideração o gênero da pessoa, como nas hipóteses da identificação civil (prenome e sexo/gênero), regime previdenciário, aplicação de medidas protetivas e ações afirmativas, dentre outras. Tais argumentos são precedidos de breve explanação sobre o fenômeno da transgeneralidade (que vai muito além do que é tipicamente analisado por juristas), bem como da análise das relações entre Estado e moralidade sexual, o que é feito sobretudo através da crítica à concepção apresentada pelos jusnaturalistas John Finnis e Christopher Tollefsen, a qual, em síntese, entende que o sexo biológico é determinante do gênero pelo qual o indivíduo deverá ser reconhecido socialmente. Em sentido contrário, esta tese defende a separação conceitual entre sexo biológico e gênero, sendo o último o elemento mais relevante para fins jurídicos e sociais. Além disso, a partir da teorização de Ronald Dworkin, argumenta-se que a liberdade de expressão de gênero corresponde a um dos principais direitos morais de pessoas transgêneras, direito este que é fundamental para o exercício da autonomia e independência ética de tais indivíduos. Conclui-se que os conceitos e a teoria defendidos nesta tese correspondem à rationale para se responder aos pleitos jurídicos de pessoas transgêneras, inclusive aqueles que não tenham sido expressamente analisados. / This thesis aims to identify and defend the main rights of transgender people, particularly those related to the states duty to treat all citizens with equal consideration and respect. To do that, this thesis is grounded on the different meanings of right presented by Ronald Dworkin, especially on the distinction between moral rights and policies. It is also based on a conception of the juridical concept of gender, which has two central dimensions: the expression of ones gender (on the masculinity/femininity spectrum) and the social recognition that one belongs to a certain gender category. It is argued that this conception of gender is fundamental for the proper interpretation and solution of legal issues involving gender, such as civil identification (name and sex/gender assignment), retirement scheme, protective laws and affirmative policies etc. These arguments are preceded by a brief explanation of transgenderism, which goes far beyond what is typically analyzed by jurists. An analysis of the state and sexual morality relations is offered as well, which is done mainly through the criticism of John Finnis and Christopher Tollefsens conception of sex and gender. In short, Finnis and Tollefsen argue that ones gender should be determined by ones biological sex. Instead, this thesis defends the conceptual separation between biological sex and gender, considering gender the most relevant category for legal and social purposes. Moreover, based on Ronald Dworkins theorization, it is argued that genders freedom of expression corresponds to one of the leading moral rights of transgender people, ensuring the autonomy and the ethical independence of such individuals. It concludes that the conceptions and theory defended in this thesis correspond to the rationale for answering legal problems of transgender people, even those that are not mentioned.

Validating Beliefs: Liberal And Conservative Protestant Views of Sexual Morality in America

Smith, Richard Maurice January 2009 (has links)
While many debates about sexual morality seem to be dominated by conservative, right wing Protestants, there are differing worldviews within Protestantism as there are in the larger American culture. In Protestantism, disparate beliefs about sexual morality have caused division between groups. Concurrently, these differing perspectives have bled into the larger discourse about sexual morality in the United States. Each group has spokespeople who attempt to validate what individuals should believe about issues like the family, sexuality, and how Protestants, and Americans in general, should think and act regarding these issues. Prior research provided a limited analysis about the views and conversations of these spokespeople and their arguments to validate their positions on sexual morality issues. To better understand how Protestants attempt to validate their beliefs, I focus on what liberals and conservatives say about sexual morality issues. In particular, what do those in influential positions (i.e., authors and pastors) tell others? To answer this question, I conduct a content analysis of 30 Protestant sex advice manuals and 20 in-depth pastoral interviews. The results indicate not only the differences and similarities of beliefs, but also that many spokespeople use various forms of validation besides, or in addition to, biblical texts. The influential are influenced greatly by their own personal biases and views of gender, maybe even more than their particular religious beliefs. Future research should explore whether there is a definitive correlation between spokespersons' messages and listeners' adherence. / Sociology

A paixão de Quitéria: crime, pecado ou indecência? uma contribuição aos estudos críticos do discurso

Fonseca, Maria Elizabeth Melo da 07 August 2009 (has links)
Made available in DSpace on 2015-04-17T15:02:04Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 arquivototal.pdf: 2518793 bytes, checksum: d1eaa9b2aad2c47b382f55524de1d974 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2009-08-07 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / This research had as objective recounts the history of the woman Quitéria Bandeira de Melo and the priest Antônio Soares Barbosa, both of them accused of articulating a supposed conspiracy to murder Jerônimo José de Melo e Castro, governor of Parahyba territory during the period from 1764 to 1797. In order to do that, an analysis of the discursive practice related to the sexual, religious, and gender morality in that colonial possession in the second half of the eighteenth-century was made. The study used as source copies of the speeches contained in the manuscripts hold by the Foreign Historical File of Lisbon, Portugal. The analysis was made in the perspective of the Critical Discourse Studies with focus on the relationships of power related to the gender category. It is expected that the result of this research can contribute to a better understanding of the religious moral conduct imposed to women through the discursive practices in the period from 1770 to 1785 in the colonial Parahyba. / Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo rever a história de Quitéria Bandeira de Melo e do vigário Antônio Soares Barbosa, ambos acusados de articular uma suposta conspiração para assassinar Jerônimo José de Melo e Castro, governador da Capitania da Parahyba no período de 1764 a 1797. Com essa finalidade buscou-se analisar as práticas discursivas reguladoras relativas à moralidade sexual, religiosa e de gênero na Parahyba da segunda metade do Século XVIII. O estudo usou como fonte cópias dos discursos contidos nos manuscritos avulsos existentes no Arquivo Histórico Ultramarino de Lisboa, Portugal. A análise foi feita na perspectiva dos Estudos Críticos do Discurso com foco nas relações de poder relacionadas à categoria gênero. Espera-se que o resultado desta pesquisa possa contribuir para uma melhor compreensão da conduta moral religiosa imposta à mulher por meio das práticas discursivas reguladoras no período de 1770 a 1785 na Parahyba colonial.

Sexualidade e cultura na primeira tópica freudiana

Gonçalves, Diego Santos 31 August 2016 (has links)
Fundação de Apoio a Pesquisa e à Inovação Tecnológica do Estado de Sergipe - FAPITEC/SE / The main goal of this paper is to discuss some relations that may be established between the subject of sexuality and culture through Freud’s work, more especifically the so called “first topic” period of his work, which withholds the texts that were published by Freud before the turn of events in the 1920’s. First of all, we will show how the theme of sexuality was since the beggining put in question by freudian psychanalitical theory regarding the clinic – namely, with the emergency, at Freud’s time, of a large number of neurosis cases. In this discussion we will approach the clinic distinction suggested by Freud between psiconeurosis and actual neuroses, delimiting the specificities of this cases and the differences in handling the sexual excitation in both. Afterwards, we will make a collection of the development of a Freudian conception of symptom, through the introductory conferences pronounced by Freud about this subject. In the next chapter, we will discuss the making of a freudian conception of sexuality, more especifically, on how this conception distinguished a lot of that shared by the medical knowledge back then, on how Freud’s fisicalist orientation had an effect on him and how the development of the concept of narcissism took this conception to the next step. In our third chapter, our goal is to narrow the links between the themes of sexuality and culture, through the reading of some sociological Freudian texts. With this end in sight, we will make a rigorous exam of two important texts from Freud’s work, Civilized Sexual Morality and Totem e tabu, so that we can point out the connections between the clinic and the culture through the strife among instinctual demands and the other, represented by the social values. Up next, we will do some observations about sublimation as a valuable instinctual end to the culture, through an exam of the construction of this concept in Freud and by taking the figure of the artist as a reference. In the end, we will make some considerations about the results of our work, emphasizing how we cannot think satisfactorily the clinical setting without a broad knowledge of the factors that condition a particular social estructure. / O principal objetivo deste trabalho é discutir algumas relações que podem ser estabelecidas entre o tema da sexualidade e cultura a partir da obra de Freud, mais especificamente o período dessa obra que se convencionou chamar de “primeira tópica”, e que abrange os textos publicados por Freud antes da virada teórica dos anos 1920. A princípio, nós iremos mostrar como o tema da sexualidade foi desde o começo problematizado pela teoria psicanalítica freudiana em relação com a clínica – isto é, com a emergência, à época de Freud, de um número muito elevado de casos de neurose. Dentro dessa discussão iremos abordar a distinção clínica sugerida por Freud entre psiconeuroses e neuroses atuais, delimitando as especificidades dos quadros e as diferenças no manejo da excitação sexual em ambos. Em seguida, faremos um levantamento do desenvolvimento de uma concepção freudiana de sintoma, através das conferências introdutórias proferidas por Freud sobre o tema. No capítulo seguinte vamos nos deter sobre a construção de uma concepção freudiana de sexualidade, mais especificamente, sobre como essa concepção diferia em muito daquela partilhada pelo saber médico da época, como a orientação fisicalista de Freud a influenciou e como o desenvolvimento do conceito de narcisismo levou essa concepção ao próximo passo. Em nosso terceiro capítulo, nosso objetivo é o de estreitar os laços entre o tema da sexualidade e cultura, através da leitura de alguns dos textos sociológicos de Freud. Com esse fim em vista, faremos um exame minucioso de dois importantes textos da obra freudiana, Moral Sexual Civilizada e Totem e Tabu, de modo a evidenciar as relações entre clínica e cultura a partir do conflito entre demanda pulsional e o outro, representado pelos valores sociais. A seguir, faremos algumas observações sobre a sublimação enquanto destino pulsional valorável para a cultura, através de um exame da construção desse conceito e tomando como referência a figura do artista. Ao final, iremos tecer algumas considerações sobre os resultados do nosso trabalho, ao mostrar que não podemos pensar satisfatoriamente o âmbito clínico sem um amplo conhecimento dos fatores que condicionam uma determinada estrutura social.

"Per soplir la fragilitat e dolència de la carn". Sexe i misogínia a la diòcesi de Barcelona (s. XIV-XV)

Conte Aguilar, Lucía 21 September 2012 (has links)
L’Església catòlica baixmedieval, va aplicar la reforma que havia de regular la moral dels fidels centrant el seu control en les qüestions relatives a la moral sexual (segle XIV) a la diòcesi de Barcelona. Aquesta tesi explica els mecanismes d’aquest control i recull el que visites pastorals i processos episcopals expliquen sobre l’intent de regular les formes d’unió de parella i conductes com l’adulteri, l’incest, la prostitució i molt particularment, el concubinat del clergat. Sosté que, en posar en marxa aquests mecanismes de control, l’Església partia d’una posició de desconfiança, -o de temor-, envers la dona, que portà a un control ferri de la sexualitat dels feligresos en general i dels clergues en especial. Els esforços de reforma dels costums morals van tenir èxit divers, que van abocar en una conseqüència, potser no conscientment volguda, però real: la definició d’una imatge de la dona perillosa, la bruixa, que calia combatre. / Medieval Catholic Church attempted to reform the moral of its members by focusing on aspects related to sexual morality in the 14th C in Barcelona. This thesis explains the mechanisms of such control and compiles the information that pastoral visits and Episcopal trials provide about the attempts to regulate sexual relationship behaviors and conducts, such as: adultery, incest, prostitution and specially Clergy’s concubinage. This thesis supports the statement that when these mechanisms for control were activated by the Catholic Church, they stemmed from distrust –or suspicion- towards women. Such position led to a fierce control of sexual behavior for all Catholic Church members and particularly the Clergy. The efforts made to reform moral behavior had different effects on issues addressed. However, the real consequence –which might not have been deliberate- was the image definition of a dangerous woman, and fighting the Witch.
