Kozler, Karel ; Brož, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Ryšková, Mireia (referee)
Jesus' teachings on marriage as a return to the "origin". This bachelor thesis deals with the meaning, importance and necessity of a marriage as an institution not only in the ancient history but also in the present times. Today's modern society is influenced by its widely- tolerated attributes, those are as followed - the deflection from a marriage as an institution, a cohabitation of the unmarried couples, a depreciation of the concept of marriage, the full perception of the importance of body, the society's attitude towards the contraception and miscarriage itself, the periodic incontinence and last but not at least the loss of a gift of reciprocity. But there are many people who understand marriage as a prime holiness, responsible parenthood and honor its high ethical and moral values. They also honor the love which relates to the purity expressed as a continence that protects the dignity. As well as they give evidence of a positive change, a deepened intimacy, love and a rediscovery of sexual self-control. This thesis is not only about a list of changing meaning and importance of marriage during the periods of time, but it primarily reflects the understanding of a marriage in the past as well as in the present and the needs of society in terms of culture and ethics of mutual partnership...

The sacrament of marriage in contemporary theology
HEJDA, Josef
The thesis, on the background of biblical and historical origins, gathers some of the present theological views, formed in particular by the papal documents that commend on marriage. It emphasizes the essential elements of this sacrament, with regards to their comprehensibility to the present recipients. It also deals with the problematic situations arising after the disintegration of the sacramental bond, and mentions possible approaches to addressing the issue of birth control. It also reflects some of the critical views and compares them with the Church's current teaching, in order to indicate the desirable plurality of views containing the potential for future solutions to the conflicts that have arisen. Specific attention is paid to the integration of Catholic Christians living in illegitimate relationships into full communion with the Church and the resulting tasks of particular Catholic communities.

The Differences in Interpretation and Practice of the Lord's Supper between Roman Catholic Church and Protestant Churches This Bachelor's thesis deals with characteristics of the Lord's Supper in particular churches. These are Roman Catholic Church and two types of protestant churches - the churches of Augsburg Confession and the churches of Helvetic Confession. The task of this thesis is to point out and to compare the most discussed elements and nexuses related to the Lord's Supper from the theoretical view of confession of each church as well as from the view of its practice - concretely how administration of the Lord's Supper takes place and what is necessary for it, how can be dealt with it, who can be the administrator and who can accept and the like. Mostly, it is used the primary literature, which particular churches use (catechisms, codes, agendas…). On the other hand, it is used the secondary literature to put in nexuses as well.
