It’s also good to mention too that for catholics, the bible came out as a fruit of our church, not the church created from the bible. Therefore many teachings/doctrines have been of experiences/tradition/scripture exegesis culminated throughout our history- a threefold use of Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition, and Magisterium. Pope JPII’s Theology of the Body goes into great detail about the sacredness of male and female, and more about contraception eventually- it’s amazing some of the phrases that you’d never think the pope would be quoted saying. Christopher West does a good job of bringing it to understandable terms (for people like me, at least) I’d suggest his video tapes though, then you can properly catch his humor. ” title=”Wink” />
