Quote from: Ladislaus

Pius XII's was the watershed papacy for everything that followed in Vatican II.

Quote from: Pius XII, Allocution to Midwives
Serious motives, such as those which not rarely arise from medical, eugenic, economic and social so-called "indications," may exempt husband and wife from the obligatory, positive debt for a long period or even for the entire period of matrimonial life.

To compromise on one moral or doctrinal question is to start on a devilish slippery slope.

Therefore, the key word, to give you an answer, and the one the Church uses all the time, and I do too, is responsible parenthood.

Resposaible parenthood means that the parents are married in the Church and they bring their children up in the Catholic Faith.

Pope Francis told his public audience on January 21 that he found it refreshing to meet parents in the Philippines who “know that every child is a blessing.”

Commenting on his trip to the Philippines and Sri Lanka, the Pope said that he rejects the notion that poverty is caused by overpopulation. He argued that “the main cause of poverty is an economic system that, at its center, has replaced man with the god of money.” He went on to decry the “throwaway culture” that “excludes children, the elderly, and young people who cannot find work.”

Pope Francis also said that he was inspired by his meeting with the typhoon survivors he met on the island of Leyte. “The power of God's love, revealed in the mystery of the Cross, was made evident in the spirit of solidarity shown by the many acts of charity and sacrifice that marked those days of darkness,” he said.

The Pope mentioned that on the first stop of his Asian trip, in Sri Lanka, he had encouraged inter-religious dialogue and reconciliation in a nation still pained by the scars of a long cινιℓ ωαr. He said that St. Joseph Vaz, whom he canonized, was an “example of holiness and love for his neighbor.”
