Religion and Sex: Exploring the Pathology of Religious Development is Cohen and Chapman's seminal work on the complex and controversial relationship between religion and sexuality. The book reveals the influence of religion on the conception of sexuality in societies and examines its possible consequences for mental health and social relations. The authors analyze the phenomena of mental conflicts, homophobia and gender stereotypes under the influence of religious institutions and cultural traditions. This book is an important contribution to contemporary discussions about the role of religion in the formation of individual and collective consciousness, and also opens perspectives for further research in this area.
