LETTER TO THE CATHOLIC HERALD

 PUBLISHED ON 21 FEBRUARY 2014

Sir,

In his rather enigmatic letter (Letters 14 February), Fr Bryan Storey does what so many people do and concentrates on the disputes surrounding the teaching on birth control in 1968. It would be easy to forget the seismic shift in the Church’s theological vision of marriage occasioned by articles 47 to 52 of Gaudium et Spes in 1965 and reflected throughout the text of Humanae Vitae.

Yours faithfully

Fr Timothy J. Buckley, CSsR
