Humanae Vitae: Paul VI's Courage in Opposing Widespread Cultural Stereotypes

Rome, July 28, 2015 (ZENIT.org) Rocio Lancho Garcia | 739 hits

On July 25, 1968, Pope Paul VI published the encyclical Humanae Vitae, on the Church’s doctrine on marriage, openness to life, contraception and responsible parenting, topics that continue to be much discussed within and outside the Church.

To get to know better the theological foundations of this document, its historical context and its implications, ZENIT interviewed the Dean of the Faculty of Theology of the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross (PUSC) in Rome, Angel Rodriguez Luno.

It is true that Paul VI was courageous in promulgating Humanae Vitae. I wonder what happened to the courage when he appointed bishops who failed to implement it or opposed it altogether.
