Humanae Vitae: 50 Years Later, Part 2

Either human sexuality is left "to the arbitrary will of man" or God has given it a design and it must be respected. In this episode Jason and Dr. Bulzacchelli discuss the document itself. We cover: -The competency of the Magisterium to make such a declaration -The "principle of totality" -Fidelity to God's design -The decision to abstain from the marital act -The moral difference between a contraceptive mentality used with licit means of avoiding birth compared to using artificial contraception for grave/serious reasons -An appropriate use of science -The family apostolate and witness of married couples
