This year marks the 50th Anniversary of Pope Paul VI's encyclical letter, Humane Vitae.
50 years ago is not a very long time, but 1968 did mark a dramatic shift in the way people view themselves and the world. Many good things have occurred these past 50 years. There can be no doubt about that. However, 50 years ago also began the journey down a slippery slope. I am posting this article from a young priest in New York. He captures some of the beauty of what Humane Vitae was saying. I think in another 50 years this papal writing will be considered one of the greatest teaching to come out of the 20th century.
