Humanae Vitae - a podcast by Darrick N Taylor
from 2020-05-31T18:07:20
*Recorded on May 27, 2020*
In 1968, Pope Paul VI issued his encyclical on the regulation of birth, which reaffirmed Catholic teaching on the nature of human sexuality. The ensuing controversy led to open defiance of the encyclical by both clergy and laity alike, and so great was the outcry against it that Paul VI never issued another encyclical during his reign as pope. This episode discusses the origins of the encyclical as well as the widespread conflict that followed its promulgation, and grapples with enduring impact of that conflict.
