The evidence against Pius XII

On October 29, 1951, Pius XII taught that in certain cases spouses could practice contraception. This exception came to be known as Natural Family Planning.

Pius XII, Address given October 29, 1951 to the ―Italian Catholic Union of Midwives‖: 36. It is possible to be exempt, for a lengthy period, and even for the entire duration of the marriage, if there are grave reasons, such as those which not infrequently occur in the so-called ―indications‖ of a medical, eugenic, economic, or social nature. For this it follows that observing the non-fertile periods alone can be lawful from the moral point of view. Under the conditions mentioned it really is so.

The underlined portion is where he has allowed excuses to be put forward (grave reasons) that would allow for the practice of the contraception method of NFP. These same reasons, along with all reasons, have been infallibly condemned by Pope Pius XI as intrinsically evil and against the natural law. Pope Pius XI condemned every reason (excuse) that Pius XII allows.

Pope Pius XI teaches that no reason (excuse), no matter how grave it may be, can be brought forward to violate a moral law. ―No reason, however grave, may be put forward by anything intrinsically against nature may become conformable to nature and morally good.‖ Pius XII says, ―There are grave reasons‖ that allow for the ―observing of the non-fertile periods alone‖ and that this ―can be lawful from the moral point of view.‖

Pius XII, contradicts, word-for-word, the infallible teachings of Pope Pius XI. He says there are certain grave reasons that allow spouses to deliberately plan to prevent (frustrate) conception when they engage in the marital act, and he declares this practice as not immoral or even a fault, but that it is moral. In this he has contradicted and thus denied a dogma of morals.
Pope Pius XI specifically condemns the common excuses brought forward by those who practice contraception.

Pope Pius XI, Casti Connubii: Some justify this criminal abuse on the ground that they are weary of children and wish to gratify their desires without their consequent burden. Others say that they cannot on the one hand remain continent nor on the other can they have children because of the difficulties, whether on the part of the mother or on the part of family circuмstances.
These are the very excuses ―grave reasons‖ that Pius XII now allows modern man to bring forward in order to break God‘s moral law.

The condemned reason (excuse) of ―difficulties… on the part of family circuмstances‖ by Pope Pius XI is now allowed by Pius XII that he refers to as the ―economic‖ and ―social‖ reasons. The condemned reason (excuse) of ―difficulties… on the part of the mother‖ by Pope Pius XI is now allowed by Pius XII that he refers to as the ―medical‖ reason.

There was much controversy over Pius XII‘s immoral teaching on October 29. Instead of repudiating it he re-confirmed it the following month, so that there would be no misunderstanding that he was allowing spouses to practice the contraception of Natural Family Planning.

Pius XII, Address to the ―National Congress of the ‗Family Front‘ and the Association of Large Families,‖ November 26, 1951: Regulation of Offspring:

21. The Church knows how to consider with sympathy and understanding the real difficulties of the married state in our day. Therefore, in Our last allocution on conjugal morality, We affirmed the legitimacy and, at the same time, the limits—in truth very wide—of a regulation of offspring, which, unlike so-called ‗birth control is compatible with the law of God. One may even hope (but in this matter the Church naturally leaves the judgment to medical science) that science will succeed in providing this licit method with a sufficiently secure basis, and the most recent information seems to confirm such a hope.

Pius XII refers back to his last allocution on October 29 when he taught the heresy of Natural Family Planning. He affirms that this may be practiced and then lies when he says it is not ―birth control‖ and is moral. He also concedes to science what belongs to the Church. No science can make moral what is immoral. He teaches that the regulation of offspring is accomplished by the new scientific technique called Natural Family Planning, and hopes that this technique can be perfected so as to guarantee 100% efficiency so that it would be absolutely impossible for spouses to conceive a child while engaging in the marital act.

Pius XII is also guilty of modernism by teaching what was condemned as immoral is now moral due to different circuмstances for the ―married state in our day.‖

First of all, even if the circuмstances were different, no excuse can be brought forward to deny a dogma of faith or morals, even at the cost of a Catholic‘s life. The passing of time and changing circuмstances never allow for the denial of one dogma of faith or morals, and those who teach otherwise are guilty of the heresy of modernism

“Till heaven and earth pass, one jot, or one tittle shall not pass of the law, till all be fulfilled. (Mt. 5:18) Jesus Christ, yesterday, and today: and the same for ever. Be not led away with various and strange doctrines.” (Heb. 13:8-9
)
Pope Pius X, Lamentabili Sane, 1907: Condemned propositions: ―53. The organic constitution of the Church is not immutable. Like human society, Christian society is subject to a perpetual evolution.‖ ―59. Christ did not teach a determined body of doctrine applicable to all times and all men, but rather inaugurated a religious movement adapted or to be adapted to different times and places. 64. Scientific progress demands that the concepts of Christian doctrine concerning God, creation, revelation, the Person of the Incarnate Word, and Redemption be re-adjusted.‖

Second, what is different about families in the 20th century than from the past? Have not past centuries had their share of plagues, famines, wars, and other catastrophes? In reality modern men have fewer burdens than men of the past, due to scientific advances in medicine, agriculture, and the ability to make the necessities of life available by faster and more efficient means of transportation and communication. So what is this fabricated family dilemma that Pius XII puts forward as a unique problem of ―our day‖?

The true dilemma is that modern men are greedier, more covetous, more gluttonous, and more selfish than ever before. In order to maintain their sinful materialistic lifestyle they must limit families because children get in the way of them fulfilling their evil lusts, and evil and inordinate passions. Pius XII is listening to the sinful groan of evil people who want to be liberated from the sweet yoke of Christ in order that they can sin and sin mightily. Pius XII sympathizes with them in their quest to be liberated from God‘s commandments and sin mightily. Not only does he sympathize with them, he aids-and-abets them by giving them a way to break God‘s commandments while quelling their guilty consciences by pretending that Natural Family Planning is not birth control.

Director,

I am moving this to its own thread, as you have now exponentially increased the importance of correcting this grave error by bringing forth a docuмent that puts into question the orthodoxy of Pope Pius XII.

I would like to ask you:  do you actually believe this junk theology as put forth in the diatribe by Richard Ibranyi or are you just confused about this and want help to see where he is wrong?

Crazy as Ibranyi is on some things, he seems right on this. NFP is camouflaged birth control plain and simple. The end result is to avoid children while enjoying the marital act. The Novus Ordo sect even offers it as an "alternative" instead of artificial birth control.

But you believe opposing this birth control method in disguise is a "grave error". Woe to you.

The "catholics" at fisheaters prove how wicked this is. It is all about lust and engaging in the marital act for pleasure only. I've read posts of them saying how they just "can't wait" for the 3 weeks of "abstinence" to be over or things to that effect.

But why are you speaking about questioning the orthodoxy of Pius XII when you believe these abominable antichrist apostate vatican 2 antipopoes are still valid popes? Ridiculous.

Quote from: Ambrose

Have the Dimonds and Ibranyi really spread their errors this far?  It seems like their followers are multiplying everywhere.   I will pray for you Pelele and I am sorry if they have caused you to doubt the binding teaching of Pope Pius XII on this matter.

How about you actually raise up some arguments? Isn't this why you made this thread to begin with?

Address in particular the fact that you seem eager to defend the orthdoxy of Pope Pius XII when you believe these antichrists from the Vatican 2 are still valid Popes.

If you believe those are real popes, what are you doing with this thread since anything goes?

Even the neocatechumenal heretics from the novus ordo oppose NFP.

Imagine that!

And note: i do not regard neither the Dimonds nor Ibranyi as real Catholics.

What is called NFP today is advertised as being as effective at birth avoidance as the pill, that is 99.99%. THAT method was unknown at the time of Pius XII allocution to the midwives. One can't use Pius XII allocution to justify the use of NFP of today for any reason. Modern NFP changes everything, and requires fallible speculation by conciliarists "theologians"
