What did Pope Paul VI REALLY say about married love, sex and contraception in his landmark encyclical Humanae Vitae in July of 1968? Why is it still vilified the most of all of the magisterial teachings of the Catholic Church to this day? And what relevance could this letter actually have in the real lives of spouses, or the culture at large? Discover the backstory that framed the writing of the letter, the integral place the figure of the future Pope John Paul II played in its creation, and the incredible, joyful call to life and love it actually proclaims. Living the vision in Humanae Vitae, 50 years later, just might be the antidote for EVERYTHING. This interview with Dr. Janet Smith, Father Michael J. McGivney Chair of Life Ethics, at Sacred Heart Major Seminary, Detroit, MI, is facilitated by Bill Donaghy of the Theology of the Body Institute. (Apologies for the garbled sound in the first minute of Professor Smith's interview; it clears up quickly!)
