Abstract

332

This article offers an overview of the rules regarding violations of the Sixth Commandment set out in the CIC 1983, as well as in the 1917 Code of Canon Law and the 1962 Instruction Crimen Sollicitationis. A significant part of the article addresses the most serious violations of the Sixth Commandment reserved to the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith in accordance with the motu proprio Sacramentorum sanctitatis tutela (revised in 2010). The most important canonical aspects of these crimes are explored, with a particular focus on factors that may affect imputability (the consumption of alcohol or drugs, psychosexual disorders, etc.) and, as a consequence, the punishment of such violations. The need for prudence in assessing the real seriousness of each case, given all the specific circumstances, so as to establish the fairest punishment, is underscored.
