Humanae Vitae

Humanæ Vitæ: The Reason My Wife & I Returned to the Church

. . .when I recently read about the new assault within the Church on Pope Blessed Paul VI’s 1968 encyclical on contraception, I was deeply disturbed.  Humanae Vitae told the truth about contraception & all its negative impacts on people & society.  It was precisely because we read Humanae Vitae that my wife, Margaret, I & became “reverts” to the Catholic Church after being away for almost 20 years.  Margaret & I were both raised Catholic & attended Catholic grammar schools, high schools, & young people’s retreats.  But by 1980, when we met in graduate school, we had essentially left the Church. . .
