Man and Sin by Piet Schoonenberg (1964) 2.3 CW

Summary of text [comment] page 82

[Schoonenberg’s proposed doctrine on concupiscence differs from the Church’s doctrine on concupiscence. It is also a critique of the Church’s doctrine.

Yet, it is not so different. Schoonenberg surveys the same world as the Church.

Ambition and power demands that we are the ones who put ourselves into perspective.

The signal we broadcast to ourselves, when received by reason, facilitates self-justification.

Self-justification is the normal context of concupiscence.]
