This is a little late as I am just examining the controversy surrounding Christopher West’s infamous comment on Nightline about John Paul II of blessed memory and Hugh Hefner of not-so-blessed memory.

Christopher West’s Theology of the Body by David L. Schindler

Here is a response by Dr. Janet Smith in Christopher West’s defense:
