Topic: The Meaning of Marriage
Professor John M. Haas, former John Cardinal Krol Professor of Moral Theology at St. Charles Borromeo Seminary, is president of the International Institute for Culture and The National Catholic Bioethics Center.
The Second Vatican Council addressed marriage in its Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World. Despite the obvious orthodoxy and beauty of this Constitution, there have been authors who have appealed to its language to present an understanding of marriage which is not faithful to the Catholic tradition.
