Journalist Frank Bruni said that Martin did not "explicitly reject Church teaching" but rather questioned the language in the "Catechism of the Catholic Church" that describes homosexual acts as "intrinsically disordered". In a column, Martin wrote that he has never challenged the Church's teaching on homosexuality and never will. Some critics have said that nowhere in his book has Martin affirmed the Church's magisterial teaching to be true. Princeton professor Robert George argued that Catholics should accept that Martin believes in the Church's teaching on homosexuality.
