CTSA Proceedings 73 / 2018 115 MORAL THEOLOGY (I)—TOPIC SESSION Topic: Humanae Vitae, 50 Years Later Convener: Kent J. Lasn
CTSA Proceedings 73 / 2018 MORAL THEOLOGY (I)—TOPIC SESSION Topic: Humanae Vitae, 50 Years Later Convener: Kent J. Lasnoski, Wyoming Catholic College Moderator: Kent J. Lasnoski, Wyoming Catholic College Presenters: Maria Morrow, Seton Hall University David Cloutier, Catholic University of America Karen Ross, Loyola University Chicago This well-attended session celebrated the 50th anniversary of Pope Paul VI’s profound, prophetic, and polemical encyclical Humanae vitae. The session featured two younger scholars (Maria Morrow and Karen Ross) with a historical and ethnographic approach, respectively, as well as a senior scholar, David Cloutier, who’s more experimental, theoretical essay provoked long discussion well-beyond the session’s close. The session opened with Maria Morrow’s “Living With (and Growing From) Bad Timing: Penance and Humanae vitae.” Going beyond the reception history traced by Tentler’s well-known Catholics and Contraception, Morrow investigates the relationship between an erosion of penitential culture among American Catholics and the near impossibility of Humanae vitae’s safe landing on the shores of American Catholic consciences. Her paper’s focus centers on the bad-timing of three documents: Humanae vitae itself, Paul VI’s Paenitemini, and the United States bishops’ Pastoral Letter on Fast and Abstinence. Humanae vitae shocked Catholics from pew to cathedra, most of which were expecting ecclesial concession to contraception due to tidal changes at the cultural level. Paenitemini and the United States episcopal letter, while attempting to renew and invigorate penitential life, making it more personal, effected exactly the opposite. Catholics felt justified not only in dropping mortifications but also in their flight from the confessional. -
Musings from Your Parish Priest
SAINTS FOR THE YEAR OF THE EUCHARIST WELCOME TO ST. PETER JULIAN EYMARD St. Peter Julian Eymard was a 19th century CATHOLIC CHURCH French priest whose devotion to the Blessed Sacra- ment expressed itself both in mystical writings and the foundation of the Congregation of the Blessed Sacrament, a religious institute designed to spread 2ND SUNDAY OF LENT - FEBRUARY 28TH, 2020 devotion to the Eucharist. Throughout his life, Peter Julian was afflicted Musings from your Parish Priest: by medical problems, including a “weakness of the In ancient times, the obligation of the penitential fast throughout Lent was to take only one full lungs” and recurrent migraines. He sought solace meal a day. In addition, a smaller meal, called a collation, was allowed in the evening.

Mattison, III, Ph.D. Committee Member iii ABSTRACT THE VIRTUE OF PENANCE IN THE UNITED STATES, 1955-1975 Name: Morrow, Maria Christina University of Dayton Advisor: Dr. Sandra A. Yocum This dissertation examines the conception of sin and the practice of penance among Catholics in the United States from 1955 to 1975. It begins with a brief historical account of sin and penance in Christian history, indicating the long tradition of performing penitential acts in response to the identification of one’s self as a sinner. The dissertation then considers the Thomistic account of sin and the response of penance, which is understood both as a sacrament (which destroys the sin) and as a virtue (the acts of which constitute the matter of the sacrament but also extend to include non-sacramental acts). This serves to provide a framework for understanding the way Catholics in the United States identified sin and sought to amend for it by use of the sacrament of penance as well as non-sacramental penitential acts of the virtue of penance. -

Teachings on the Need for Freely
TEACHINGS ON THE NEED FOR FREELY CHOSEN PENITENTIAL PRACTICES IN LENT AND THROUGHOUT THE YEAR ON FRIDAY The need for conversion and salvation is unchanging, as is the necessity that, confessing our sinfulness, we perform, personally and in community, acts of penance in pledge of our inward penitence and conversion. For these reasons, Christian peoples, members of a Church that is at once holy, penitent and always in process of renewal, have from the beginning observed seasons and days of penance. They have done so by community penitential observances as well as by personal acts of self-denial; they have imitated the example of the spotless Son of God Himself, concerning whom the Sacred Scriptures tell us that He went into the desert to fast and to pray for 40 days. Thus Christ gave the example to which Paul appealed in teaching us how we, too, must come to the mature measure of the fullness of Christ. ^ Of the many penitential seasons which at one time or another have entered the liturgical calendar of Christians (who on this point have preserved the holy tradition of their Hebrew spiritual ancestors), three have particularly survived to our times: Advent, Lent, and the vigils of certain feasts. Lent as principal season of penance Lent has had a different history than Advent among us. Beginning with the powerful lesson of Ash Wednesday, it has retained its ancient appeal to the penitential spirit of our people. It has also acquired elements of popular piety which we bishops would wish to encourage. Accordingly, while appealing for greater development of the understanding of the Lenten liturgy, as that of Advent, we hope that the observance of Lent as the principal season of penance in the Christian year will be intensified. -

The Revision of Canon Law: Theological Implications Thomas J
THE REVISION OF CANON LAW: THEOLOGICAL IMPLICATIONS THOMAS J. GREEN The Catholic University of America HE SECOND Vatican Council profoundly desired to bring the Church Tup to date (aggiornamento) and make it a more vital instrument of God's saving presence in a rapidly changing world. Crucial to the revital- ization of the Church's mission was the reform of its institutional struc tures. Understandably, then, a significant aspect of postconciliar reform has been an unprecedented effort to reform canon law. Indeed, the time- honored relationship between total ecclesial renewal and canonical reform was recognized by Pope John XXIII in his calling for the revision of canon law as early as January 1959, when he announced the forthcoming Second Vatican Council.1 Two decades have elapsed since that initial call for canonical reform, and the process of revising the Code of Canon Law (henceforth Code) seems to have reached a critical stage. A consideration of some key moments in that process should help one gain a better perspective on the present status of canonical reform.2 The Pontifical Commission for the Revision of the Code of Canon Law (henceforth Code Commission) was established by John XXIII on March 20, 1963.3 However, it began to function only after the Council, since a principal aspect of its mandate was to reform the Code in light of conciliar principles. Only then could the Code be an instrument finely adapted to the Church's life and mission.4 On November 20, 1965 Pope Paul VI 1 See AAS 51 (1959) 65-69. See also J. -
1 Longer Canon Law Introduction Page For
LONGER CANON LAW INTRODUCTION PAGE FOR DOWNLOADING (material taken from the CLSA commissioned The Code of Canon Law, A Text and Commentary, edited by James Coriden, Thomas Green and Donald Heintschel (Paulist Press, New York: 1985), pp. 1-22). I. The Historical Development of Law in the Church. There are basically 5 historical periods in the history of the development of law in the Church. These are as follows: 1. The Early Christian Community (1-8 centuries). The early Christian Church, at least in Jewish sectors, incorporated the laws of the Old Testament into its life and practices. In the Old Testament, there were laws, which focused on the worship of the Jewish people, laws concerned with dietary regulations, and moral laws given by God for his people. In the earliest writings of the New Testament, laws appear. St. Paul, the first writer of the New Testament, presents lists of moral and disciplinary directives to be observed by all believers. He speaks at some length on marriage, the giving of directives for the moral life, and on amending the Jewish ritual practices of the early Christians, so that Christianity would not simply remain a Jewish sect. The early Church councils made determinations that were fairly specific and localized. They sought to offer specific solutions to specific problems now being faced by the growing Church. Many early canonical decisions and legislation was made from local, regional and provincial councils, such as the Synod of Elvira (in about the year 300). After the Edict of Constantine (313), the Church began another stage of development, since it was now free to grow and expand beyond the borders of the Roman Empire, without fear of persecution. -
Consecration and Secularity
CONGREGATION FOR THE INSTITUTES OF CONSECRATED LIFE AND SOCIETIES OF APOSTOLIC LIFE CONSECRATION AND SECULARITY Letter to the Bishops of the Catholic Church regardin the Secular Institutes Provida Mater Ecclesia was a revolutionary ges- ture in the Church. Secular institutes are themselves an act of courage that the Church made at that moment; giving a structure and institutionalize the Secular Institutes. And from that time up to now, the good you do for the Church is very great; it is done with courage, for one needs great courage to live in the world. Many of you live alone, others in small communities. Every day you live the normal life of a person in the world, and, at the same time, nurture contemplation. This contemplative dimension toward the Lord as well as in relation to the world: to contemplate reality, to contemplate the beauties of the world as well as the great sins of socie- ty, its deviations; all these things, and always in a spiritual tension.... This is why your vocation is so fascinating, because it is a vocation which is spot on, where the salvation not only of people but of the institutions are at stake. And a great many lay institutions are necessary in the world. That is 3 why I think that Provida Mater Ecclesia was a truly revolutionary step for the Church! (Pope Francis to the participants at a meeting organized by the Italian Conference of Secular Institutes, May 10, 2014) 4 Dearest Brothers in the Episcopate, On the seventieth anniversary of the prom- ulgation of the Apostolic Constitution Provida Mater Ecclesia (February 2, 1947), and of the Motu proprio Primo Feliciter (March 12, 1948), we would like to take this opportunity to thank the Lord for the gift of this vocation in the Church.
