We MUST Promote Recognition of the Sanctity of Life & the Sanctity of Marriage/Family/Human Sexuality (10/15/23 edition)
We still need our Holy Father & his associates "to demonstrate an acutely improved understanding of God's gift of authentic marriage/family"

Since at least the late nineteenth century (cf, From Pope Leo’s Arcanum to 2013 – Part 1 & Part 2, 10/22; St. Pope John Paul II's "Theology of the Body" on marriage/family/human sexuality, 9/26/23), we were blessed with clarity from the Chair of Peter on matters of marriage/family/human sexuality - at least until 2013.
I recently wrote that "We need our Holy Father and others to demonstrate an acutely improved understanding of God's gift of authentic marriage/family" (Catholic365, 3/3/24). After Dignitas Infinita (Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, 4/2/24), that great need remains!
Our children and grandchildren need to know the fullness of truth about marriage/family/human sexuality!
