In my personal experience, I have met a number of Catholics who are unenlightened and unthoughtful, and many who are. Higgins certainly fits in with the latter. He is a man of intellect and integrity whose works do not warrant such harsh criticism. He is without a doubt a brilliant theologian, and his ideas cannot be dismissed by such ad hominem attacks. He is deeply pious but also reasonable, and if there is anyone who truly represents the ideal of Catholicism, it is Higgins.

This was a very interesting book. It broadened my intellectual horizions. This man truly understands the truths of human nature. Higgins, picks up common moral issues in the Church and attacks them passionately. I could not put the book down, I felt it was my duty to continue to read it. I loved it!
Fairly presents both sides of the issue

Higgins' text fairly presents both sides of moral issues: the Church's and counterarguments towards the church's position.
