Partly correct

Dominionism Isn’t Just an Evangelical Thing


"Everybody knows the Catholic Church is very preoccupied with the body, particularly the female body."
Only partly true because of the abortion issue. The truth is, as Pope John Paul II's 'Theology of the Body' outlines, that it is all humans, male and female, that are now a serious preoccupation of the Catholic Church. The media's (and people in general) focus on women's issues makes the female body the most talked about. There's not a lot of focus by the media on 'men's issues', but the Church doesn't ignore them...
